Mozilla Firefox versus Internet Explorer Part 2

I left off in the last blog (Mozilla Firefox versus Internet Explorer) asking if there was any hope for Netscape Corporation and  Mozilla Firefox.

The answer is YES! After Microsoft did what it did to make Netscape Corporation decline, Netscape responded by releasing the source code for the browser in 1998. Furthermore, Netscape Corporation founded a non-profit organization called Mozilla Foundation to look after the development of the browser.

If we look at today, Mozilla Firefox is still popular and is a true example of an open source project that is still thriving in our ever growing proprietary system.

Here is the link to the Mozilla Foundation:
