We did it before. Thanks to Firefox we broke the IE6 monopoly even on Windows.

How did that happen, anyway? Tabs? What's the next killer feature after tabs? Maybe sync?

  • Adblock, I would have thought. And Google can't compete in this space, by their very nature.

    This is the message that Firefox needs to push: Hate ads? Use Firefox.

    • Considering that Firefox by itself doesn't block anything without extensions, that seemingly less than 10% of users use extensions and that tgere5are already quite a few snappier browsers that block ads by default...

  • Haven't all the major browsers had sync for ages? I've been using Firefox's built-in sync for so long I don't even remember what it was like without it.
