Google's hiring of the lead Firefox engineer has started the rumor mill rolling. Is this a prelude to the purchase of Firefox ... First here is what Ben said in announcing his new gig: " Now that's interesting. He will work for Google and also continue his work on Firefox. He will also sometimes stop in at his old office ... which I presume they will keep intact. Why would Google let him do this? Could this be part of the legendary 10% of the time they allow employees to spend on seed projects? Or ... Could this simply be a prelude to buying Mozilla? I think the answer to that question is yes. murdok is the CEO of WebProBlog which focuses on internet business and marketing trends.
