Depending on how you do the math, either yesterday or March 31st is the 10th Anniversary of Mozilla. In a way, it doesn’t seem that long ago. And in thinking about it, it hasn’t been ten years, because the real game changer didn’t get started until six years later (in 2004) when the first release of Firefox arrived on the scene.
Since then, Firefox has delivered a little over three years of innovation and improvements. More than can be said for the stale, outdated default provided by a large, malicious corporation. It will be interesting to see what Firefox is delivering as it reaches it’s tenth. The inclusion in the next release of semantic web awareness is (to me anyway) a sign of good things to come.
Cheers, Mozilla.
