The countdown to Firefox 2 marches on with the release of Firefox 2 Release Candidate 2 this weekend. If you had RC1 and have automatic updates turned on, you've probably already been notified of the new version and have it installed already. If not, now's the perfect time to
download RC2 from Mozilla.com. The changes in this release are almost exclusively behind-the-scenes security, performance, and stability fixes, so don't expect anything mind-boggling if you've been using RC1.

I've been playing with it on my iMac and it's quite nice!

I am just trying out the new release of IE7, and find it interesting all the debate about this release versus the Firefox download. One of the most interesting aspects of the IE vs. Firefox battle is the development of the ecosystem of extensions or add-ons. It’s not just about bugs and features. Right now Firefox had a great advantage in this space but you can see Microsoft trying to catch up.
I noticed an interesting extension called Trailfire, set up as a recommended download for IE7. See link:

I think the ecosystem for Firefox and IE will decide who wins this battle. What do you think?
