During today’s Snowl: Messaging in the browser session, Myk Melez introduced a new Firefox extension called (you guessed!) Snowl, to explore what does it take and whether it makes sense to add messaging capabilities to the browser.

When the iPhone was first revealed, a long year and a half ago, Steve Jobs proclaimed that it was "The best iPod we've ever made". That was probably true.
