Ask me and I will say that this was inevitable. With the kind of flexibility over UI , page rendering and speed Firefox provides; we all knew firefox will reach this milestone. This achievement has come within 5 years of a vision of making Web a Better place to be. Eating up the share of Microsoft Internet Explorer, Firefox now account for nearly 22.5% of all active browsers.
Firefox has launched the website to spread the word even more and reads :
We’re awed and amazed…
…to be celebrating one billion Firefox downloads. That’s one billion times in the last five years that you and the rest of the Mozilla community have made the choice to make the Web better.
But it’s not just about Firefox. We are the world. We are the billions. We are the ones who make the Web a better place to be. As we all start towards the second billion, let’s take a moment to reflect on the wonders of the Web that you’ve helped nurture and grow.
I am sure with the number of features in terms of adds ons and security, bloggers best friend , Firefox will reach greater heights. Congratulations Firefox !!!
