Today we’re introducing Raindrop, an exploration in messaging innovation being led by the team responsible for Thunderbird, to explore new ways to use Open Web technologies to create useful, compelling messaging experiences.
For more information, see the release announcement blog post.

Hopefully this will be the start of something great. Can’t wait to see it in action.

Sounds like a good idea.
Raindrop sounds like an exciting project and application. When do you think the first public beta will become available for testing?

Hello,
I believe that this project could be a great solution to the ever increasing messages that one must deal with. I would like to be able to help with this project if I could. Please let me know when I can sign-up.
Thank you,

Really excited about this project… crank it out! This is what Google wave should have been.

This sounds AMAZING. It clearly addresses a void in social communications that needs to be filed. And pretty much Is what people though Google Wave WAS supposed to be. Don’t get me wrong. I want to incorporate Wave into my business and personal collaboration. But rain drop looks like a tool I would use EVERY DAY.
Sounds very interesting and inventive. I would like to follow the development
please invite me.
Hi Guys,
iam a avid fan of Firefox. keep up your great job. i await to hear from your new innovation..
good luck
While it seems like a good idea to have a web portal side of it. The whole reason I use Thunderbird is to have access to my communications while offline. A standalone version of raindrop that can save the data from the raindrop portal locally seems idea.
Thanks Mozilla
Honestly?
You made Firefox 3.x the worst release of your browser ever. You dropped the ball. And now you are making a google reader?
You are rapidly losing credibility – I no longer have a Firefox shorcut on my linux or mac machines, it is Safari, epiphany-webkit and chrome / chromium all the way.
Do some more of those fancy 10 minute $8,000 videos to talk about your weak ideas and prototypes that go nowhere.
Way to waste all those millions from google – ah well.
Hey Mozilla Team,
This seems like a really innovative idea. Kudos to you guys for coming up with it.

This is intriguing. Especially since it’s a web app. Can’t wait to see it!
I am interested in exploring Raindrop by being an alpha/beta tester.
