What is Ben doing?

It's been a busy year. Right now we're starting work on features for Firefox 2.0. I'm working on Firefox's new Bookmarks and History system with Brett, Brian, Annie and Joe. I've collected a bunch of architectural documentation here. At the same time I've also been thinking about Search and Subscription Handling. I'm looking for comments in the discussion pages in all of these documents - share your thoughts, experiences, ideas etc. Let's make searching and subscribing in Firefox 2.0 kick ass!

In the mean time, I'm going to be going on Christmas Vacation in New Zealand for three weeks, starting December 16. I'll be back on January 8, and don't anticipate being online while I'm away (yay!).

New Firefox Extensions

A few weeks ago I posted about our Firefox job openings here at Google. Wonder what sort of work we do? Lots of things. Primarily, we contribute to Firefox. But we also do cool things like these. Congrats to Glen, Fritz, Raph, Garrett and the rest of the crew for these great product launches!
