Mozilla is working on a developer site with Wiki based documentation for web development: http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Main_Page

An excellent idea, it would be great to get (X)HTML, CSS, XML... reference documentations here. At some point I was thinking that Wikibooks could host such documentation, but Mozilla is a better place I guess, more focused. I hope it will take off.

Anyterm

Anyterm looks like a nice terminal emulator that runs in a web page. JavaScript code in the web page connects back to a special Apache module. Also, check the comparison page, very good overwiew of symilar tools.

JavaScript Console in Firefox Sidebar

Tagged:  •    •  

There is a very easy way to add the JavaScript Console to the sidebar or as a regular tab:

  1. In Firefox select Bookmarks / Manage Bookmarks...
  2. Select a folder and then click New Bookmark
  3. Enter "JavaScript Console" as the name
  4. Enter chrome://global/content/console.xul as the location
  5. Check the Load this bookmark in the sidebar checkbox, or leave unchecked if you want to load the console as a browser tab
  6. Click OK and try the new bookmark

Distributed Automatic Browser Screenshots

Very neat idea, distribute the work of creating browser shots for different browsers and platform: Distributed Automatic Browser Screenshots. Not sure how will this project take off, if people only use resources and don't give back then it is not going to work. It seems quite hard for an average web developer to give back, complicated setup is needed.

One of the commercial sites I have seen is BrowserCam. While not too expensive for a commercial project, for open source projects it is almost a no go.
