Google seems to be so desperate to promote its own browser Google Chrome that it removed Firefox from Google Pack. Earlier firefox was default browser in Google Pack.
This could affect Firefox badly because 85% of Mozilla’s total income comes from Google. Let see how Firefox is going to face this blow.
Mozilla is going to release Firefox 3.1 Beta 2 in the first week of December. This version will be add-on compatibility frozen. It means that this new version will not break add-on so its safe to update your add-ons right now. Beta 3 is also in pipeline . So user have plenty of time to update their add-on between the release of Beta 2 and Beta3.

Firefox is my favorite browser. Once i started using it there was no looking back . When Google’s Chrome was launched with much hype i was really excited and downloaded it on the same day. (Google legacy was the driving factor). But i found it was the replica of Firefox. I didnt like it and again started working on my old Firefox.
The reason for not switching to Chrome was simply “Firefox add-ons “. I was using some add-ons at that time and they were proving boon in my development work. like CollorZilla which gives you the hexa color code of any point in the webpage.
Firefox add-ons are little extras that allow you to add a personal touch to your browser. Select your favorites from the categories below to accessorize your Web!
