After a rather long period in beta, Firefox 4.0 is finally "complete" and should be seeing a Release Candidate soon.

Now we are seeing the first milestone of their Web Application project, which might just come integrated in Firefox 6, coming later this year.The announcement of the Chrome web store was quite a disappointment, since it didn't take advantage of one of the strongest features of the open web platform, the fact that it was open, and the best aspect of HTML5 yet, cross-browser compatibility. The Chrome Web store could have been so much more. However it is what it is, a web application store that sells application that only run on the Google Chrome browser, although there is nothing in the way of them...
