Another good point that they have shot themselves in the foot. Popups, pop unders, flash adds, adds that make noise, adds that pretend to be system message . ..
The list goes on.
One part of me says "Fuck-em" but another wants there to be adds to there can still be free services online.
Yes, ther eis nothing more frustrating than being on a server that *WAS* going great until some asshole joined and screwed it up for everyone. But alas, no admin in sight.
You walk down the street,a nd ask people what the computer program Opera does, you'd get no answer in 100.
You do the same thing with Firefox, and people know what you're talking about as mcu as they don't.
I don't need any hard stats and figures to know that Firefox has made a more profound impact on people and the internet than many other things in a long time.

"Official" addresses for sex offenders can be wrong.
TGIK got his address removed from the list a while back when he found out that the dude who lived at his place before he did, was a sex offender.
Mistakenly, his address was still on the list.
LMAO!
steady on, my friend, steady on.
I don't get the joke.
Grub, I'm just making this check out here. is $50 enough? Lagomorph
TV has had a long time to figure this out, and only profesionals are putting ads out.
The internet, is anyone. This is good, this is bad.
In this case, any idiot can try and sell you viagra on their NAMBLA site.
Yeah, nobody is going to pay money for a hotmail T-shirt, or a geocities mug. :P
Who is going to pay money to geek geocities or hotmail online?

This brings up a good point.
If nobody is looking at ads, ads won't pay for anything.
Although, I don't know of any browser that blocks by default, as of yet, it's very easy to block images in firefox.
Other than adds, what else could fund 'free' services online?
The inverse sounds dangerous, but a good way to die. :-D
I find that around here (Portland, Oregon USA) that people know enough to know what IE is, and might know firefox is.
Like the people that bitch about people being "panzer noobs" in Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.

This is shaping up to be a big deal. Bigger than I thought it would.
I'm hoping this will bridge the gap in the users of macs and PCs. Bring mac users closer to not being second class citizens in the software market.

Too many eyes on this one for them to try and sneak it in.
