If at First You Don't Succeed: Mozilla Releases New Version of Snowl Messaging Plugin

By Frederic Lardinois / January 13, 2009 9:30 AM

snowl-logo.jpgSnowl is Mozilla's experimental attempt at creating a unified messaging client for Firefox. When we first reviewed Mozilla's Snowl, it looked like a promising project, but ultimately didn't live up to its promise. The new version, which was released yesterday, is vastly superior to the first, but still has a lot of usability issues. It does, however, also clearly show that the project still holds a lot of promise.

A First Look at Mozilla's Snowl

By Frederic Lardinois / August 7, 2008 10:30 PM

snowl-logo.jpgYesterday, Mozilla announced Snowl, a prototype of a universal messaging/content aggregation plugin for Firefox. In its current incarnation, Snowl only allows you to view your Twitter messages and RSS feeds, though Mozilla is planning on adding more messaging services in the near future. During our first tests, we came away disenchanted, as the execution of this first version leaves a lot to be desired, even if the general idea behind Snowl is quite interesting.
