FireFox, when will you dominate the web?

26800146 FireFox, when will you dominate the web?According to the most recent polls and researches, 25% of the users currently use FireFox. While this is a great step forward compared to 10% it was 1,5 years ago, still most surfers choose IE. The sad point is, they don’t actually “choose” IE. They get it by default with Windows, and since the vast majority of us does run this or another version of Windows, we don’t get to choose a browser. When we finally get to study the net and what else it has to offer us, we get used to our buggy little IE that would freeze whenever it finds fit, and we just don’t see a point anymore in switching to FF.So, “ONLY” ÂŒ of the users use Firefox, yet this browsers seems to attract developers crazily, maybe because it’s mostly used by webmasters. I can’t even count the amount of extensions and add ons that has been developed for Mozilla’s leading browser over the past year alone. ALL the leading social networking sites has been optimized for fast and easy use with Firefox, this includes:

  1. Delicious
  2. Digg
  3. Fleck
  4. Facebook
  5. LiveJournal
  6. Myspace
  7. Newsvine
  8. Orkut
  9. Squidoo
  10. Stumbleupon
  11. Twitter
  12. Technorati
  13. Skype
  14. YouTube
  15. Wikipedia

And the list is far from being complete. So why Firefox still struggles to make it to the first place when every semi-decent application rushes into developing addons and plug ins for FF, in order not to disappoint?
