Now That Mossberg Has Spoken….

June 5th, 2008 Posted in Browsers

…and declared that Firefox 3 “is the best Web browser out there right now, and that it tops the current versions of both IE and Safari in features, speed and security”, does that mean Firefox will really, really burst into the mainstream and start to eat Internet Explorer’s lunch?

According to Net Applications Inc., Firefox will likely hit 20% of the browser market next month after ending May at 18.4%. Given Mossberg is an influential tech observer and Firefox is getting very good reviews, how long will it take before Firefox reaches 25% market share? It’s probably sooner than you think, although it does appear Mozilla has some more work to do on Firefox before it’s really ready for prime time.
