Mozilla Starts To Follow a New Drumbeat

Posted by CmdrTaco on Monday January 11, 2010 @03:32AM from the boom-snikt-snikt-boom dept.

ChiefMonkeyGrinder writes "Key, then, to the Drumbeat project is openness, specifically openness as applied to the Internet. That fits in well with the original impulses behind Mozilla and Firefox. The former was about transforming the Netscape Communicator code into an open source browser, and the latter was about defending open standards from Microsoft's attempt to lock people into Internet Explorer 6 and its proprietary approaches. Both Mozilla and Firefox have succeeded, but the threats have now changed."

From TFA:

"Mozilla Drumbeat is a global community of people and projects using technology to help internet users understand, participate and take control of their online lives."

It sounds like someone other than myself wants to take control of my online life...
