Classy move by IE7 Team
The good folks at the IE7 team have sent Mozilla’s Firefox team a cake congratulating them. Just a few days ago I was talking about how Microsoft really gets community, and is reaching out. Here’s another great example.
Martin and I did a podcast interview with the IE7 team, I even asked Dean “Why should someone switch from Firefox to IE?” He gave a great answer, I recommend you listen in to hear his response.
Way to go FF team for the release (I’ll upgrade as soon as it comes out) and IE teams. Is it possible that we can peacfully co-exist in a multi-browser world? I’ll vote yes.

But, will the Firefox team show the same cooperative spirit? I know what my guess is…
I did a little blog post, not as edible but heartfelt nontheless.

[…] Sure, IE 7 has the integrated feed aggregator which is much better than Firefox’s RSS Live Bookmark implementation. But I’m willing to bet the FF team realizes that the future of syndication will be a web service and not through a desktop application. That’s pretty obvious to me and the reason I believe IE 7 will NOT take RSS mainstream. Thanks to Jeremy for pointing this out. posted by Andy Brudtkuhl on October 26th, 2006 […]
