The actual users of the browser [Firefox] are going to share their
enthusiasm and appreciation with others. They will do it relatively informally and no
doubt from the bottom of their hearts. And since they have nothing to gain personally, it
might just work.

Sound familiar?

<A href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/web_browser_faceoff.php">recently</A> about
the renewed web browser war between Microsoft and Mozilla (and some other, smaller,
usually very innovative players). Our theory is that in 2006 a lot of the ground work for
a major battle was laid out. Microsoft <A href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/internet_explorer7_review.php">launched</A> a
significant upgrade to Internet Explorer for the first time in about 5 years (IE7), while
the Firefox team spent time <A href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/firefox_20_review.php">polishing up</A> their
open source browser. But it is the latest developments which make it clear that Firefox
thinks it's showtime. The first development was the <A href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/google_advertises_firefox.php">Firefox ad</A>
on Google's home page. The second one was the <A href="http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/firefox_tv_commercials.php">annoucement</A>
that Firefox is going to advertise on television (curiously our post on this didn't seem
to get much reaction, but we thought it was big news). So in terms of the browser wars
Part II, the coding part is done and it is now all about the marketing.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/6D84F4C8-F599-451B-8A0D-379428886BAB/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
