It’s been way too long since I have blogged.

Most of my summer was spent on a cross country road trip which you can read about here. I worked as we traveled which went reasonably well, but didn’t leave time for blogging.

The biggest news I have is that I have resumed work on Operator. In particular, I’m fixing bugs, adding a few usability enhancements and adding support for new microformat stuff like the value class/pattern for dates. I’m also considering completely removing the “Actions” toolbar and switching to interacting only with the data. I’m definitely looking for feedback on that one.

If you have anything you wish Operator did, please let me know and I’ll see if I can get it in.

Note that Operator is a part of the AMO Contributions program and I’d appreciate any support you can provide. Right now I’m mixing it in with my paid work, but I’d like to spend more time on it.

The bulk of my paid work has been for Brand Thunder. We’ve been updating our extensions to work properly with Firefox 3.5. There’s quite an eclectic mix there, so you’ll probably find something that you like.

Going forward I’m going to try to start doing extension related posts, primarily to see if I can drum up some more business. So if by chance you have a question about anything I’ve done in the past with extensions, or should do in the future, please let me know.

UPDATE: Forgot that I’ve also proposed a panel for SXSW. Please vote:
