For me, the dream ticket would of course be some kind of formal Google/Mozilla alliance, leading to Firefox becoming the official Google browser. At the moment, Firefox is the best current bet for a browser that can challenge IE. A Google browser would be better bet because of brand recognition - but Gooooooogle Firefox, well for me that'd be the mutt's nuts.  |
Roll on Googlefox (or should that be fireoogle)
But Seriously, the Firefox rowser, with the google branding - that would be an absolutely brilliant combination.....
I have used Netscape, Opera, Mozilla, and now Firefox and can honestly say that this is the best of the buch - with google branding, the average user would try it, like it, and never look back.
I get my wife to move to netscape 7 from IE, and she loves it - now that firefox in on release 1.0 (or 0.10 as the linux code states
) I will be getting her to try that. (I have used it since 0.5, but as a user, she needs the stability more than I)
