The End of Firefox?

There has been quite a bit of buzz surrounding Chrome’s (Google’s web browser) graduation from beta. Gizmodo thinks that the non-beta Chrome will start stealing browser market-share because the all-powerful Google will now be pushing their browser and instead of Firefox.

Back in 2005, Google was paying good money to people who referred Friefox + Google Toolbar downloads. With their help, Mozilla‘s Firefox gained a lot of attention and downloads. It became the major competition to Microsoft’s IE. However, now the non-profit Mozilla will be up against the big-money of Microsoft AND Google.

Only time will tell how the browser war will pan out. I just hope IE looses a few points.
