So check out* the recent mockups for Firefox 3 themeage! Some people have been saying that it looks way too much like Safari, but I'm of the opinion that goddamn near anything will be better than the Firefox 2 theme. Ooh, and maybe they can get the close buttons on the correct side of the tab, this time! Anyway, I'm excited.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, I encourage people using trunk builds to check out the link at the top of the right-hand column over at Aronnax's page. It looks a little bit silly without the still-in-development Unified Toolbar patch --

-- but it's a distinct improvement over the Frankensteined-out placeholder version of the 2.0 theme, so I figure you might as well go for it.




Oh, also, I made my first purchases from Amazon.com's new mp3 store today. Verdict: It is the shit. Awesome selection, helper application that doesn't suck, no DRM or other toxic substances. And now that the US dollar is swirling in the bowl, their prices aren't even getting trumped by Zunior -- for some albums, in fact, they're even better. Anyway, I grabbed the new TMBG, the most recent Loud Family, and the most recent Mountain Goats (plus a bunch of their B-sides). I think we finally have the online record store that will change these things permanently; from here on out, you'll be buying more and more of your records minus the actual record. iTunes was theoretically reversible; this is not.

Also, having it around is going to be kind of hazardous for my checking account.
