		<title>Are you well fed?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ben Ward has designed a cool t-shirt based on the semi-ubiquitous web feed icon with the caption &#8220;Well Fed&#8221;. The shirt is pretty comfortable; It&#8217;s not too flimsy or heavy. And the caption has an extra level of irony for &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2006/10/07/are-you-well-fed/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Pinstripe for Firefox: Now with 20% more Macintosh</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This update to the stand-alone Pinstripe theme turned out to be more of a redesign than I originally intended. Stephen Horlander sent in a cool concept for the browser tabs. Check out the etched text on the inactive tabs.

		<title>Web feed icon trademark, licensing and usage guidelines</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am encouraged to read Mitchell Baker&#8217;s posts (part 1, part 2) about the usage of Stephen Horlander&#8217;s web feed icon which is seen in Firefox, IE7 and on an increasing number of web pages. She suggests that Mozilla should &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2006/06/12/web-feed-icon-trademark-licensing-and-usage-guidelines/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Mac-like Form Controls for Firefox</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Mac-like form controls seen in Safari and Camino look nice, but tend to ignore CSS styling. I wanted to see if I could bring more flexible form widget styles to Firefox, while staying close to a native look as &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2006/03/11/mac-like-form-controls-for-firefox/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Thinking Different</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few days ago I took delivery of a brand-spanking-new Thinkpad T42. It&#8217;s a beast of a machine with the sex appeal of a brick, but it&#8217;ll do. Why a Thinkpad? I&#8217;d like to be able to build Firefox and &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2005/01/31/thinking-different/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Pretty Widgets, Part 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This is a third try at making Mac Firefox&#8217;s primitive-looking HTML widgets work with the design of Pinstripe. This time I took care to make the styles play well with others. For instance these styles won&#8217;t override CSS set by &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2005/01/23/pretty-widgets-part-3/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Firefox Preferences Rejiggery</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ben&#8217;s been working on making the Firefox preferences window more Mac-like and I slapped on a skin last night. Here&#8217;s a peek. The content fades in and the window slides open as you click from pane to pane.

		<title>Thunderbird&#8217;s Extreme Mac-over</title>
		<description><![CDATA[After the Pinstripe theme landed in Firebird, icon designer Stephen Horlander and I dove in to a companion Thunderbird theme. We started in early November 2003 and finally hit the &#8220;let&#8217;s stop fiddling with it and get it out there&#8221; &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2004/12/09/thunderbirds-extreme-mac-over/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Brief History of Mozilla on the Macintosh</title>

His post describes the various Mac project codenames and answers some questions that I see from time to time like &#8220;Why doesn&#8217;t &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2004/12/02/brief-history-of-mozilla-on-the-macintosh/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Our little &#8216;bird is all grown up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I started using Thunderbird, I must admit that I had to force myself. Stephen Horlander and I were creating the Pinstripe theme and I was happily using Apple&#8217;s Mail program. A year ago Thunderbird felt unfinished (I can hear &#8230; <a href="http://kmgerich.com/2004/11/29/our-little-bird-is-all-grown-up/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<title>Firefox 1.0: The Beginning</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Even though I&#8217;ve been working closely with Firefox and Thunderbird for over a year now, I&#8217;m amazed at the attention it&#8217;s receiving. Not actually surprised though. I&#8217;ve always thought of Mozilla as being full of potential.
