'an early look' (intended for testers)

Firefox 4 Beta 1: Tell us what you think!

The beta version is also available as a portable app, "if you want to try it out without worrying about altering your happily-stable installed version of Mozilla Firefox."

In any case, proceed carefully.

Note: This is not an endorsement.

marketing tactics vs. web standards

Apple's HTML5 Showcase Isn't HTML5, Blocks Other Browsers
(see Apple - HTML5)

It seems like Apple is using the same sneaky marketing tactics as Microsoft does with its HTML5 demos page - which doesn't really use any HTML5 either. This similarity is hardly surprising considering both companies are pushing a non-Free patent-encumbered codec for HTML5 video.

We agree!

CSS vendor prefixes – Can we all get along

In the absence of standards all browsers are guessing what should they implement. Every browser wants to be first to implement some new cool CSS feature. The risk is that we will end up writing specific CSS code for every browser. Trust me we don’t want that!

banking/e-commerce at risk

Creating a rogue CA certificate

This successful proof of concept shows that the certificate validation performed by browsers can be subverted and malicious attackers might be able to monitor or tamper with data sent to secure websites. Banking and e-commerce sites are particularly at risk because of the high value of the information secured with HTTPS on those sites. With a rogue CA certificate, attackers would be able to execute practically undetectable phishing attacks against such sites.
