Arcanology.com A Special Cake for Firefox team from IE. image:41044:4::0

Internet Explorer still dominates Firefox by nearly seven times (83 vs. 13 per cent). But while Internet Explorer is a closed browser, Firefox is an open browser. There is a friendly competition but also mutual admiration between the two competitors. To congratulate Mozilla's introduction of the new Firefox 3 browser yesterday, the IE team sent a special cake to Mozilla offices, as shown in the picture.

Sean from Microsoft bought this cake to Rob in Mozilla’s office. Mozilla was not surprised because they also received a cake from IE when Mozilla introduced their Firefox 2. Apparently Microsoft wants to maintain a tradition. Will they keep the tradition once Firefox exceeds them in market share? Only time will tell.

Also, Firefox 3 was downloaded by a record 8.5 million users and counting in just over 24 hours. Even though Mozilla called it a Guinness World Record, there are no previous records to compare to, but this can be considered one of the top records if not the biggest.
