HP has pushed out an over-the-air update for webOS adding a few new features, most notably, the ability to pair non-webOS phones so you can answer calls on your TouchPad.

The update also adds a new camera app, support for OGG Vorbis music files, and online/offline messaging status support, as well as some stability improvements. You can find the whole list of fixes in the link below. The update should download automatically when your device is connected to the internet. Photo by SapiensBryan.

Disable Firefox's Annoying "Firefox Updated" Page with an About:Config Tweak [Annoyances]

Every time Firefox updates (which is pretty often, these days), it opens up a "Your Firefox Is Up to Date" page that, frankly, is a little annoying. Here's how to stop it from doing that next time it updates.

To turn off this annoying behavior for good, just type about:config in your address bar, hit enter, and promise Firefox you'll be careful. Then, search for:

browser.startup.homepage_override.mstone

Double click on it and set it to ignore. Now, whenever you update, Firefox should just open up your home page (or restore your session) as normal, without opening any new tabs that get in your way.
