Firefox Now The Most Poplular Browser
December 22nd, 2009 — Blogging World
In the crazy history of internet browsers (dating all the way back to the days of Netscape) companies have been trying to get to the top of the heap and dominate the users’ browser experience. New stats out now show that Firefox 3.5 is now the most popular browser world wide, having edged past Internet Explorer.
Microsoft has spent massive resources and money over the years to get IE to the top of the heap and dominate the browser experience but now Firefox has risen to take top spot. IE 8 may be hot on its trail and over take it but you have to admit that it is quite an achievement for Firefox to out muscle Microsoft if even for a short time. Not being backed by a major corporation or having integration into OS installs makes it tough to grow large but Firefox seems to have done by providing a quality user experience.

Congrats to the folks at Firefox and may they continue to give us all a great browser to use for years to come.

Microsoft and Yahoo to Partner For 10 Years
July 29th, 2009 — Blogging World
This just in from the world of the web. The search engine war heats up, or does it?
Microsoft and Yahoo made it official on Wednesday. The two companies announced a 10-year pact where Microsoft will power Yahoo search. Yahoo also becomes the sales force for Microsoft’s premium properties.
The companies said the search deal will accelerate innovation and bring more value to advertisers and Web users. Yahoo and Microsoft also get to focus on their core strengths. Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz says there will be “boatloads of value for our users and industry.” Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer says the Yahoo deal gives Bing the scale to compete.
It’s inhumanly early in California, but it’s already a great day at Yahoo!. We’ve just signed a major search deal with Microsoft. Under the terms, Microsoft will become the search engine behind Yahoo! and we will become the worldwide exclusive relationship sales force for both companies’ premium search advertisers. — Yahoo CEO Carol Bartz
What does the Yahoo exec have to say about competing?
Better competition: Competition equals innovation. But with one player dominating 70% of search, that field has been pretty lopsided. This transaction will create a healthy competitor that’ll keep everyone on their toes.
The deal is not slated to close till early next year but both companies seem to exude confidence it will go through. But will the regulators go along with it? That remains to be seen. Surely Google is licking its chops at the chance to take on this consortium effort.
