• Kurt's bio from the O'Reilly (http://www.oreilly.com) website reads:
  • "Kurt Cagle is an author and writer specializing in XML, Web 2, SVG, and blogging. Kurt is a lead architect for Mercurial Communications (http://www.mcomi.com), is the publisher of the upcoming Web 2 and SVG Magazine, and is the chairman of the SVG Open 2006 Conference (http://www.svgopen.org) in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. He's been writing a biweekly blog at understandingxml.com for the last three years, and thanks O'Reilly for the chance to expand upon this so that other people can hear him make a fool of himself on a regular basis. He lives with his wife and daughters in Victoria, where he gets to watch the squirrels periodically mug the tourists."
  • His latest book, "Pro Firefox Extension and Application Development" will be released October 9, 2006.
  • The book blurb from Amazon (http://www.amazon.com) follows:
    • "Pro Firefox Extension and Application Development is the first book to show how to extend Firefox's capabilities using JavaScript, the eXtensible User-Interface Language, XForms, CSS, XUL, and XBL. You will learn how to take full advantage of these technologies by building useful example applications and extensions, like a Firefox-based blog editor.
    • You can extend Firefox's capabilities to create custom features like RSS readers, weather reporting tools, and pop-up blockers. This ability to incorporate additional web-related features into a single application provides you with a newfound level of convenience for interacting with the Web. By book's end, you'll be ready to build the next generation of web applications using this exciting platform."
