Some readers may remember visiting my Neuromancer rendering, which attempted to make reading in a browser window easier. While looking into porting piemenus from IE .htc to Mozilla, I found another wonderful Hopkin's creation, similar to my reading renderer, but much more effective and well engineered. Check out *another* run on sentence.

Out of alpha, I've aggregated some community contributiongs to enable mouse gestures in Mozilla. Ideally, this would be written at a lower level in the browser, but it seems to run just fine resource-wise. It's implemented as a toolbar. The big challenges are improving ease of use (largely technical challenges), making it easier to learn (a presentation challenge), and making it easy to configure (a resource/payoff issue at this point).

After 5 years of 'alert(someDebugMessage)' or window.status='someDebugMessage', there's a robust Javascript debugger -- for Mozilla! . Combined with a utility for altering the user-agent string, Mozilla is becoming a very powerful tool for web app building.

On the usability front, grokDotCom writes a succint summary of web eye tracking research.
