I've build a candidate version of Prism 1.0b2 (based on the latest Gecko 1.9.1 sources) for Ubuntu. Please let me know if you encounter any difficulties with it. I'll try to get it onto the official site by the end of the week.

I gave a talk at OSCON last week entitled "Prism, Bringing Web Applications to the Desktop”. I've posted the slides with my script inline.
(As an aside, this is the first time I've ever written down a script for a talk. Usually I just run through the slides a couple of ...

I've built new versions of Prism based on the same Gecko 1.9.1 sources as Firefox 3.5. I also updated the Prism for Firefox extension so it runs on Firefox 3.5. I'd like to get these onto the official Prism site as soon as possible, but would appreciate if interested folks ...

A couple of Prism-related links via Mark Finkle:
Meebo has added some basic Prism support. Nothing earth-shattering, but this is exactly what we want to see happening, so hopefully it's the start of a trend.
Chris Pirillo did a whole manic rant about Prism on CNN video. Thanks, Chris, just note for ...

In a blog post about the recent Prism 1.0 release, Lifehacker expresses confusion about some of the new Prism features:
Mozilla's caught on to this kind of open-when-needed use, adding built-in support for tray icons (on Windows) or system dock shortcuts (on Macs), along with minimizing the sites to those areas. ...

I'm in Madrid right now for a couple of days of R&R (in theory, at least) before heading to Barcelona tomorrow for EU MozCamp. I'll be running a session on Prism. The timing is auspicious since we're at something of a crossroads with the product. It doesn't have any obvious ...

Due to overwhelming public outcry (which is how I characterize two requests in the same day), I've updated the version of Prism for Firefox on addons.mozilla.org to the latest 0.2.1 release.
This version is so much better than the old one, it's not even funny. It includes a slew of new ...

I posted an update of the Prism for Firefox extension weeks ago, but like an idiot I specified the maximum compatible Firefox version as 3.0. Naturally Firefox 3.0.1 came out shortly afterwards, but somehow I never got around to bumping the version number in the extension (which should have been ...
