At the end of a day, Firefox is just a web browser, no more, no less. HTTP, HTML/XML, Flash, etc., are nothing new and exciting, I hope those technologies will be superceded by something better. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person who's not rushing to install Firefox 3.

yes, it is just a browser but having more than one dominant browser will force web developers to code to the standards and web browser's companies to improve on their implementations of their browsers through peer pressure and reviews against other browsers ..

firefox popularity at some level have increased your browsing experience, in whatever browser you prefer to you
