1. Comment - Mozilla: Tell us how you see the future of Web browsing

   (Aug 6, 2008 - 8:13 PM)

   This is a combined response to a few of the responses to my original post...
   
   First of all, it's not Mozilla's job to single-handedly invent new innovative web standards and new paradigms. That's the job of the W3C. Mozilla's main job is to invent things that make web browsing more convenient....like tabbed browsing did back in the day.
   
   My main point was that Mozilla should focus on getting their browser to be fully compliant with existing standards and improving performance before they put a lot of resources into "the next big thing". There are already a lot of good ideas in the optional extensions. If a few of the most useful extensions were carefully selected and integrated into the browser code, then the code base really wouldn't grow very much and the browser would work more efficiently than the current incarnation of the browser with those extensions installed.

   Focus on passing the acid3 test and improve the efficiency / speed of the browser.
   
   Integrating a media player sounds like a good idea eventually....I guess the next logical steps in that area would be teaming up with Sun and Adobe to improve the performance of Flash, Acrobat Reader, and Java in Firefox. Some of the most useful extensions could become part of the browser code.
