If I named ten extensions I am the biggest fan of, WOT Web of Trust would be on that exclusive list.
Why?  They provide a great service to the public, helping organize the public to alert itself about risky web site.  The real power in WOT isn’t the tools, it is the users.  It is the perfect mash up of the right tools, at the right time.  Anything that is simple to use, and makes users more aware of the [...]

Video DownloadHelper is by far the most popular of the video downloading add-ons out the for Firefox.  Only proof you need is to check out the most popular downloads page yourself.  It gets 480,759 weekly downloads.  With that in mind, I wanted to talk with the man behind what might be one of the most popular add-ons for Firefox, ever.  Who is this man? Michel Gutierrez is the brain behind the Video DownloadHelper and I was lucky enough to [...]

So what type of questions would you have for the mind behind NoScript?  I recently got to chat with Giorgio Maone, the creator of possibly the most popular security related extension for Firefox.
Why would the random Firefox user off the street be using NoScript?
Firefox is an extremely safe browser, because it can take advantage of an open and agile development process, a very security-minded core development team and a multi-vendor security coordination group, including people from major Linux distributions [...]

The team over at Wired have posted a very interesting article with Mozilla’s CEO, John Lilly about a number of topics.  One of the topics that came up was iPhone and the easy somebody like Mozilla would have developing for it:
Wired: Are you going to develop a version of Firefox for the iPhone?
Lilly: No. Apple makes it too hard. They say it’s because of technical issues — they don’t want outsiders to disrupt the user experience. That’s a business [...]

Just ran across this interview with Mozilla’s CEO, John Lilly on the GigaOM Show over at Revision3.com. Well worth checking into and watching to hear a little more from one of the head honchos.

Me.dium is one of those unique Firefox addons that delivers a service that none so far have been able to duplicate. Giving you a way to chat live with other people on the same page – the idea is simple, yet brilliant. I recently had the chance to get a quick interview in with David Mandell the founder and VP of Marketing at Me.dium.
Does it make you feel nervous at all that your success is so tied into [...]

I think too often the extensions and themes in the Mozilla realm might get more attention than the people behind them.  With that said, I want to shed a little light on the people who make these things happen from both inside and outside of Mozilla. So where to start? How about with Wladimir Palant – the creator of Adblock Plus.
What is the difference between Adblock and Adblock Plus?
Well, usually that’s the point where I send people to [...]

Here is an interesting story that I found from Mozilla Links. Mozilla + Podcast = Good Stuff.
The Mozilla Digital Memory Bank has announced the launch of a new weekly podcast featuring snippets from the memory bank’s audio content.
Organized a few years ago by the Center for History and New Media, the MDMB “is a permanent, open, peer-produced digital archive of Mozilla history” that “collects and permanently preserves digital texts, images, audio, video, personal narratives, and oral histories related to [...]

Asa is a very interesting guy. I have to thank him somewhat for the popularity of Firefox Facts and him making mention of it on his blog (as well as giving me feedback on the eBook). Check out this interview with him as he discusses the new commercials that Mozilla is going to be pushing out to a TV near you – sometime soon.
Later today Firefox will begin broadcasting, for the first time, four “fan-produced” commercials on prime [...]

Over at Slashdot they have an interview with Chris Beard of Mozilla. Out of all the Firefox 2 hype interviews and articles, this one might be one of the best. Here is just one example:
How was the cake from MS?
Chris: It was a nice surprise actually, and we think it’s great that Microsoft is taking an interest in browser development again. Of course there wasn’t nearly enough of it to go around since there are thousands of people [...]
