Information Architects » Blog Archive » Designing Firefox 3.2

by sbrothier & 1 other
In January 2000, T-Online asked us what we’d do if we could design a browser from scratch. Our answer was “Tabs”. Eight years later Aza Raskin, head of user experience at Mozilla, asked me what I think a new tab should look like. The answer after days of mailing back and forth: “Forget tabs!”

A lot of accessible tools have been added to the toolbar to make it easy to find your torrent like 'keyword highlighter', 'select toggle' to toggle between search engines by category, and 'toggle by first letter' to easily find the search engine you need.

Chrome and Firefox 3.5 Memory Usage

by night.kame

Firefox 3.5 used the smallest amount of memory during its peak, it used the smallest amount of memory when all points were averaged, and it used the smallest amount of memory at the end of the experiment after all tabs were closed. Firefox 3.5 continues Firefox 3.0's legacy of being the most memory efficient browser in this style of experiment.

A noter le "in this kind of experiment". Le test en lui-même ne montre pas grand chose, il est biaisé initialement par le fait que Windows gère mal la mémoire dans le sens où il ne maximise pas l'utilisation de la RAM. La seule chose importante est de savoir si la mémoire utilisée est la RAM ou la mémoire virtuelle (ie. un bête fichier). Tant qu'on reste dans la RAM, il n'y a pas de problème, et de ce point de vue là, une utilisation par Chrome de 1Go de mémoire sur les 4Go de mémoire physique (configuration du test) n'est pas forcément négatif au niveau des performances. De même, si la faible consommation de mémoire de Firefox est due à un nettoyage aggressif des structures de données temporaires, ça peut être pénalisant en vitesse. Mais étant donné que ce test ne regarde que la mémoire (espace) et pas la vitesse (temps), les conclusions ne peuvent être que très limitées. La remarque sur IE8 ne fait pas très sérieux...

TabExposé - Exposé for Safari

by gregg
How much do you love Tabs ? Anyone who experienced Tab browsering could not imagine for one second having to go back to a single-page windows surfing. How much do you love Apple Exposé - the feature that displays all open windows in a quick and clear way so you can access what you need in a snap? TabExposé is a Safari add-on that enables you to view all open tabs in Safari the same way Exposé displays all open windows on your Desktop.

charlesv: Netvibes Slimserver Mashup = All Your MP3s Anywhere, In Any Browser

by rvoluer & 2 others (via)
jax tabs and all sorts of actually useful web 2.0 interface bits. One of the cooler things about netvibes is you can subscribe to podcasts on your netvibes page, and it will play them in a small flash (?) mp3 player at the top of the screen, no external application required. For a long time, I've been using SlimServer to listen to my music library at work / wherever. It monitors my iTunes database (but can point to folders), and will transcode on the fly to a lower bitrate so that I can stream at a listenable quality on my residential cable connection. I've been using winamp to listen to the stream, but that was a little clunky, and I thought there must be a better way. Looking on the netvibes ecosystem (a repository of rss feeds, podcasts, and custom netvibes mini-apps called modules), I couldn't find a SlimServer control/streaming module. So, I decided to hack together my own solution which, if I say so myself is pretty ding-dang neat. Here are some screenshots of it in action

Features: + Appears when opening new tabs + Appears when loading new tabs content + Appears within loading page contents (a loading div control containing a frame of another site) + Appears when a page transitions to external or new domain + Works in Firefox 3! + Clean and very appropriate animated default image, included with style (Firefox logo Spinning) + Makes your browser look great, and adds that "wow" factor. Additional Information: *NOTE: Please Clear your Cache and Restart your browser after installing or changing this style, your custom image will need to be cached in order for it to be displayed. * You may have to disable the following two styles for this to work: - Custom About:Blank logo - Custom New Tab Loading Image
