Yahoo! Axis has security flaw.
I told you yesterday of the new app from Yahoo! for iOS, and browser extension for Firefox, Chrome, and Safari, called Axis. Well apparently Yahoo! leaked some critical info about the browser extension that makes it vulnerable.
Yahoo! today released its Axis extension for Chrome – and accidentally leaked its private security key that could allow anyone to create malicious plugins masquerading as official Yahoo! software.
Australian entrepreneur Nik Cubrilovic, who last year garnered notice for identifying Facebook’s tracking cookies, revealed the certificate blunder on his blog, and said users should not install the extension “until the issue is clarified”.
NIce going Yahoo!
Code signing coming to Firefox Mac builds
We don’t know exactly when 10.8 will be released to the public but some have speculated that it could be as early as the week of June 11th at WWDC 2012. We must have a signed and released Firefox out there before the general public starts upgrading and we’ve been working hard to make that happen as soon as possible. This post will give a short history of Mac signing at Mozilla and talk about our timeline for enabling it.
Gatekeeper by default, allows the user to install any app from the Mac App Store or from any developer that has authenticated themselves with Apple and obtained a certificate. This will be a great security feature to help avoid installing malware on your system. Nice move by mozilla.
8 Simple Tips to Secure a Mac from Malware, Viruses, & Trojans
Nice post by Mac OS X Daily. No need to panic, we’re not on Windows XP territory yet. Just follow common sense, and be careful. Also, follow these instructions on their site. As far as anti-virus goes, it’s up to you. On my Windows machines I only use Microsoft Security Essentials, and run as a Standard User (as well as on my Mac) and have been virus free for over four years now (on the Windows side, on the Mac, so far so good).
Although browser preferences are personal, I recommend using Chrome or Firefox (with Noscript). Last but not least, keep everything updated, the OS, browser, apps, plugins, etc. If you are running Lion, Java was not installed by default, and there is a very good chance you don’t need it at all.
Mozilla’s Boot to Gecko – The Web is the Platform
Introducing Open Web Devices
Announced today at Mobile World Congress, we have some very exciting news with Open Web Devices! We will be working with telecommunications operator Telefónica, and as detailed in our press release, here are the goals:
Mozilla Marketplace Opening for App Submissions Soon
Mozilla Marketplace Opening for App Submissions Soon
Today, we are incredibly proud to announce that the Mozilla Marketplace will open for developer submissions next week during Mobile World Congress. If you are an app developer interested in distributing and monetizing your app across device and platform silos, you should submit your app to the Mozilla Marketplace. Submitting your app will reserve your app name and give your app the chance to be featured in the launch later this year.
Another app store, just what we need.
Mozilla Firefox 10
Mozilla has released Firefox 10 for Mac, Windows, and Linux which adds powerful built-in developer tools, smoother updates, and full screen support.
Postea en Facebook y Twitter al momento correcto.
Buffer, una aplicación para iOS, te permite poner Tweets y Status en Facebook, al momento que sea mas conveniente para ti. Por ejemplo, quizá encuentras algún artículo o página de Internet interesante, pero es o muy tarde en la noche o muy temprano en la mañana, y en ese momento casi nadie se va a dar cuenta de que pusiste el link en Facebook o Twitter. Lo mejor sería hacerlo a una hora donde mas de tus amigos o seguidores puedan darse cuenta y ver lo que pusiste, en estos casos, usando Buffer, pones un itinerario y los tweets o status van saliendo durante el día automáticamente.
La aplicación es gratis, con distintos planes:
Tiene extensiones para Chrome, Safari y Firefox, y en el caso de Mobile Safari, añadiendo un bookmark, te permite llevar links de Safari para la aplicación en el teléfono. Además te permite en Safari, postear links a Facebook y Twitter sin añadir un toolbar, que en mi opinión se ven horribles y ocupan mucho espacio en pantalla.
Aclaración: los 10 posts de la cuenta gratis no son al mes, solo significa que tu buffer solo aguanta 10 posts a la vez, si necesitas mas, entonces necesitas comprar alguno de los otros planes. Gracias a @Tane883 por la duda, y por ponerme a pensar un rato.

Probablemente, si se portaron lo suficientemente bien este año, mañana día de Navidad les regalen algún electrónico con una manzanita. Les voy a dar un par de consejos que usé yo cuando me cambié a Mac y que les doy a todos los que conozco que han hecho el cambio.
