William Reardon’s Blog

This past weekend, while IM’ing with my young brother, Jimmy, he mentioned that he had recently switched over from Pocomail to Thunderbird, which I use at work. This in turn became a lovefest about things we each liked not just in Thunderbird, but in its sibling, Firefox too.

Jimmy’s only complaint about Thunderbird was the inability to have a single inbox for several POP accounts. (Jimmy is a busy man so I can see where he’s coming from.) The folks at Mozilla must have heard him, for a few short days latter, Thunderbird 0.8. Likewise, my complaint about aggregators seem to have been heard as well.

After years of browser stagnation, it’s exciting how Mozilla is breathing new life into things. Kinda makes me more motivated to roll up my sleeves and help out.
