Back in 2004, Firefox reached version 1.0 and quickly became the alternative browser of choice for people sick of Internet Explorer and Safari. It’s hard to imagine my internet experience without it now, but it’s good to remind myself that before 2004, all I ever used was Internet Explorer (scary, I know).
Anyway, I really like how this video looks as it recounts the story of how Firefox came to be and came to be one of the most popular browsers on the market. These days it’s getting some competition from Google Chrome, but for at least a while longer, it’ll be the king of browsers in my mind.
Happy Birthday, Firefox! Multiple tabs definitely contributed to my Internet addiction :D
My college roommate used Internet Explorer up until the spring semester of our senior year. It took me two years to convince her to switch over. Needless to say, she thanked me afterward.
