Anything regarding Firefox catches my eye these days. I switched from IE to Firefox back in November and have been very pleased with the overall performance (I even like their email program, Thunderbird). I have had something strange happen to my home page within the last couple of weeks, though, and I can't seem to figure out what changed. I use the same home page for my laptop at work running IE and it loads and looks the same as ever. My home computer running Firefox does not load my home page the same as it did when I first started using it. None of the news/sports/entertianment /etc. headlines show up, and most of the graphics are missing.

I'm not panicked about it, just would like to figure it out. I suspect that it might have something to do with the Java script settings (since the Jave Script console under "Tools" shows many errors) but as far as I can tell all the Java settings are enabled.

Any FReeper help out there would be appreciated.

As to the article, I have a sneaking suspicion that a Google browser will be available in the near future. Just a hunch.

Google's gone public, and now they will go on a drunken sailor shopping spree. Look for Firefox to morph into GoogleExplorer, to go along with GoogleMail.

Searched (not googled) out your post after reading this article.

I sure hope FF doesn't take the "No Masters, No Need" approach. It is the open-source community that makes FF a users browser. I can see it now, lattes, daycare, and partner benefits.

Hey, it works for MS... yak
