Weave Project
What Is Weave?
Weave is a Mozilla Labs project to integrate web services into Firefox by allowing users to securely share their data with other users and 3rd parties. As such, the Weave encompasses a Firefox add-on, a server component, data sharing APIs, etc.
All software released as part of the Weave project is currently considered to be in the early prototype stage, so use it at your own risk.
You can read more about Weave in the original announcement, "Introduction to Weave," as well as the Weave Forums.
At the time of editing the Weave servers are no longer accepting new account registrations for "at least a few days". See the announcement at Mozilla Labs weave server. --Mark Weston 17:02, 11 July 2008 (PDT)
