On May 1, 2006, a blog was born. The Firefox Extension Guru’s Blog that is. We debuted on Blogger but within a few months moved over to WordPress. The big Firefox news back in 2005 was the upcoming Firefox 2.0 due out later that year as well as the collapse of an anti-spam extension and the decision not to include Places in Firefox 2.

I was never really sure if the blog would last, but it has continued to grow. Currently averages around 1500 views per day. That did peak to nearly 3000 views on they day of and following the release of Firefox 4. Gareon celebrated his 1-year anniversary contributing to the blog back in February. Around that time, the blog, main site and the Wiki were all moved to a new server to better handle the growth.We also redesigned the main site and wiki. At this time there are no big plans for the next year for the sites, we’re gone to busy enough as it is with Mozilla’s aggressive release plans for this year.
