Scott writes:

Piclens is a fun and addictive way to browse Flickr and other image sites. The only real downside is that Piclens currently doesn’t support the Firefox 3 betas (no real surprise since they are betas), otherwise this would make my list of must-have add-ons.

Not to worry, Scott – we’ve made a couple of trips to Mozland in recent weeks to discuss Firefox 3 tech bits with the Mozilla team.  Just last week, CoolIris gave a brown bag presentation of PicLens to the Moz lads and lasses in Mozilla’s recently revamped theater/lounge.  There were oohs and ahs in all directions – the CoolIris guys were wowed by Moz’s mile-wide projection screen, while the Moz folks were wowed by what we were projecting onto it. 

Can’t say any more than that at the moment.  Stay tuned!

 Thanks, Nick!

 Say, he’s got a lot of videos embedded in the Primordial Ooze.  I wonder what we could do with that…?
