   Got any ideas on when it will be compatible? I'm missing me some ugly-lady-in-a-blue-sweater-while-deftly-handling-her-mouse-action, here!

   Literally working on it now! No ETA. The next show is gonna be awesome and we want it to show up too!

   Here's the roadmap:
   1. we have a new show to release in 2 days on June 19th. We're trying to roll in the fix for this ticket: http://dev.eyebeam.org/projects/add-art/ticket/19 (our oldest) which will allow us to tell our users – who haven't switched to FF3 today – that we're working on the problem.

   2. Concurrently, we are working on this ticket: http://dev.eyebeam.org/projects/add-art/ticket/83 which will get Add-Art working in FF3. It involves some fancy stuff with XBL. If you want to pitch in, we're looking for patches.

   If you want to know what's up and

   a) you are a geek: updates will be on the ticket system, our developer mailing list, etc. which you can get to here: http://dev.eyebeam.org/projects/add-art/wiki

   b) you are not a geek: we'll be posting less geeky info on the front page of the site and announcing it on our general mailing list here: http://add-art.org/content/contact

   Thanks for asking!

   Yeah...

   So, I was thinking. Maybe you should talk to these guys?

   Sorry, I've been traveling a bit. I have been in touch with the Pro Web Surfer folks, but hadn't thought about talking to them about this. Good idea. We also have some clues to follow up on. Spanktacular, if you know anything about XUL I'd love to talk...

   Am holding off on upgrading to FF3 because I just can't go back to the ads. Although I'm not a back end web developer, I'm going to point friends who are to this project. Ad blockers have been around for a long time, but none with as solid of collaborative filters AND art! What could be better?

   (oh. yea. getting it to work in FF3 and IE...)

   Best, and thanks for this amazing work.

   @seej,

   Thanks! Our set of volunteer coders are almost out of ideas, but we have it up on Rent-A-Coder. If your friends are up for the challenge we can pay. (Code stays open source though!)

   It's working now, and it's awesome. The current art show is disjointed and doesn't seem to have much of a theme, but it's working!

    Ignore my theme comment. I visited the site of the creator. I can see a theme based on her site, but I still don't get the circuit stuff...
