New Fennec (Mobile Firefox) Milestone

Okay, this is just cool.  I can’t wait until Fennec is finished!

Fennec (Mobile Firefox) has reached milestone 6 (M6) last week and can be installed to a Nokia N8×0 for testing. Remember, we haven’t reach alpha yet, but we are getting close. M6 adds “tabs” to the browser UI, adds tel: and mailto: support and makes some much needed stability improvements.

New Secure Gmail

You should be able to login to Gmail now, click on Settings, and at the bottom of the General tab you can set Gmail to always use a secure (HTTPS) connection.  I’ve been doing this for a while because I booked my Gmail login page with https in the address bar, and I’ve been advocating this for a long time.

Thanks Google!
