Firebird, AKA Phoenix has yet another new name, "Firefox". Officially the browser is still in Beta, so no big deal, and those who know of it also know the older names.
Hate the new name? Well now there is a new extension which makes fun of the name changing that allows you to change the name to something palatable. The extension called < Firesomething > lets users change the name seen in the browser titlebar, Help menu, and About dialog, thus erradicating all traces of "Firefox" in Firefox (currently version 0.8).
I'm posting this using the wonderful new browser "Waterchicken"!

Haha, damn, I guess I have to add a similar plugin to Bookmark Converter then, so that people can choose the right name of the browser with the bookmarks they want to convert.
