Firefox: The IE Killer

Yes, you heard it here first. If Internet Explorer doesn't make some serious changes in short order they'll face certain extinction to the hands of Firefox. Why you ask? Isn't it obvious?

WebProWorld In order to answer that question we'll need to take a little trip down internet memory lane. Our first stop is the home of Linux founder better OS than what was currently available and amazingly he did. Then he opened up his source code and the source software company lost a fortune due to the open source movement and scores more individuals have benefited from it so needless to say, it's quite a application programming interfaces. They allow a developer to access data or processes they would otherwise not be able to access. APIs allow developers to grab book and author information from Technorati. There are dozens more cool apis and tools built around those apis but the fact of the matter is that APIs are changing the way businesses research and implement new features by allowing them to connect with their users while at the same time conducting free research & development. That's where Mozilla foundation's latest browser comes in. It's the IE killer! Firefox's source open and there is a features. When a developer writes a piece of code for Firefox it's known as an extension. Currently there are 178 and the list is growing all the time. These extensions aren't just colorful skins there much more. In fact, they're the key reason Firefox is my browser home. They're saving me time and money by encapsulating functionality I could only get before from various web sites and software. Now instead of going over to the Web Developer extension from the firefox site. Here are some other cool features I could never easily do with Internet Explorer (in its current state) or without installing 5 different toolbars filled with features I'll never use.
