Is Tom supporting Firefox?

WOW! Now it seems that MySpace supports Firefox over IE... I wonder what this means for Microsoft.

Well in a late night/early morning bulletin from Tom, Co-Founder of MySpace, he stated that some of the third party music player sites appeared to be down. Apparently the MySpace members who are using Firefox aren't affected. Also, he went on to promoting Firefox. Saying, "...either remove your music player, or switch to Firefox.. and make all your friends switch to Firefox..." That sounds like advertising to me.

Either way, Firefox IS more better than IE. Faster and more secure with almost endless customizations for it. From themes to addons to block ads. IE charges, Firefox doesn't. Did I mention Firefox is more secure?

I don't really think it's bad for Tom to advertise Firefox, even if he says he isn't. It just makes me feel all bubbly inside. He likes Firefox, I use Firefox. :) Ok I'm going over my head on this on.

Fact of the matter is that Firefox is already taking up 42.6% of the browser martket. That's nearly even with IE at 48.6% (IE6 & IE7 put together) for September 2008 usage. No wonder Tom recommends it. Besides, it's securer than IE.
