You can’t beat a fox made out of freakin’ fire!

Bust out your Kool and the Gang MP3s, because it’s time for a celebration!
Today, you all have done it once again. With your amazing efforts, Firefox has reached 400 million downloads and demonstrated that not even the world’s most powerful companies can keep people from a better, safer, and faster Web experience. You all, the [...]

Update: Ripple back in action

Like any good horror movie villain, ripple.org is back. If you had passed ripple.org over recently due to some technical issues then I encourage you to try the site now. The causes they support are well worth your minute to take a peek. Thanks for the update, Matt!
