Ars Technica Interviews Scott Collins

Posted by michael on from the uphill-in-the-snow-both-ways dept.

SnoopTodd writes "Ars Technica has an interview with Scott Collins of Mozilla. 'That's the thing I learned to lust after as a programmer. It's not my ability to solve one problem, to plow this field, but the ability to build a plow that every farmer uses. The ability to make something that touches not ten people, not a hundred people, not a thousand people but a hundred million people. I want Mozilla to be there again. IE is a browser with no soul. I want it to be Mozilla because I think that people who care deserve a browser with a soul.'"

    "I want everyone to use it" does that not sound like the person he is chastating?

    You know, it's a great euphemism in print, but I tried saying it out loud a few times and it falls kinda flat.
