20 Percent Of TechCrunch Readers Are Already Browsing With Chrome
,----[ Quote ]
| Googleâs Chrome browser is quickly gaining
| market share, with one estimate putting it
| at about 5 percent of total usage, while
| Microsoftâs Internet Explorer is seeing a
| drop in overall share. But among TechCrunch
| readers Chrome is already beating every
| browser except for Firefox.

Where does Mozilla go when the monopoly witch is dead?
,----[ Quote ]
| That one (point 5) seems to be where Baker
| is at at the moment, although she's fairly
| guarded about it. Speaking earlier at a
| session at DLD in Munich, (video) Baker had
| described Firefox as the "first necessary
| step", a mechanism for breaking the
| monopoly.
|
| This was a process of disruption, and "we
| still intend to continue disruptionâ not
| based so much on cost, because we've now
| moved into a phase where everything is free
| of charge to consumers. For Mozilla and
| Firefox the key to disruption is the control
| point, so our original disruption of the
| first monopoly was to actually build an
| industry and to crack the control point open
| to get to the stageâ of creating value."

Starting the Discussion: How to Make Mozillaâs Websites Better
,----[ Quote ]
| As noted yesterday, there are many good
| things about Mozillaâs various websites, but
| the big picture of how theyâre organized and
| work together leaves a lot of room for
| improvement. Entering our web universe can
| be really confusing for users, and the
| current setup limits the ways we can spread
| the word about all the stuff thatâs
| happening around the organization and
| community.

Licensing Delay Complicates Decision Between Open Source and Proprietary Video Players
,----[ Quote ]
| "Gack!" you say (justifiably). "Thank goodness
| I don't need to know about this H.264-HTML5-Ogg
| Theora mumbo-jumbo." Unfortunately, if you are
| in charge of encoding video for your Web site,
| if you design video players, or manage those
| who do, then you probably do need to pay
| attention.
|
| Blame it on YouTube and Apple. Though they
| didn't start it, their recent moves have
| brought the debate about open-source video
| codecs from niche blogs to a wider audience.
|
| [...]
|
| There is one major obstacle to HTML5, however:
| Mozilla, the open-source developer of Firefox,
| doesn't support H.264 because it's a
| proprietary codec. (Mozilla and others in the
| open-source community prefer Ogg Theora. And
| Google is looking to buy On2, the company that
| owns yet another proprietary video codec.)
