Thunderbird 1.0 Released

Your Shameless Host

Hi! Welcome to the personal blog of Jason Stirk (Griffin) - a slightly unhinged web application developer living in Lismore, NSW (yes, that's in Australia).

I am Development Manager with reInteractive where I do a lot of Ruby on Rails Development.

The opinions on this site do not necessarily reflect the opinions of my employer, regardless of how awesome either party may be.

I work almost exclusively with Ruby and Ruby and Ruby on Rails, although my sordid past has seen me work in a variety of languages, as well as administering various flavours of Linux servers.

Development Services

RubyX provide a range of development services, including Ruby on Rails Development, emergency application support, maintenance, code reviews and training.

Pieces of Me

Seems I'm spread all over the net these days...

Link Love

Here are a few trendy folks that I know, or have worked with.

Syndicate

It was an awesome game, but that's not what I meant! I meant FEEDS! Of the RSS and ATOM flavours! Get them while they're still meaty!

For all those interested parties, Mozilla Thunderbird 1.0 has now been released (press release here)

I actually downloaded the 1.0PR last night and was playing with some of the schwanky features with Message Grouping. Although this feature has apparently been there since 0.9, I only found it last night and was very interested. I strongly suggest you have a play with that and the new and quite schwanky RSS aggregator support. The new default theme for Thunderbird is also looking quite nice.

Only problem - Import and Export as OPML might keep me using SharpReader (under 2k) and Liferea (under Linux) over Thunderbird for a while though.

Just remember Paul, you said last night you'd "Wait until the 1.0 stable" to try it!
