Yahoo To Fully Support Not Fully Supporting Firefox
from the ah,-thanks-for-that dept
Yahoo started to win some extra fans yesterday afternoon by announcing they were going to fully support Firefox on all their web offerings. If true, this would be great, since an increasing number of hard core internet users now rely almost exclusively on Firefox, and there's nothing more annoying than websites and services that force you to go back to IE. However, Yahoo quickly backtracked and claimed that actually, when they said they would fully support Firefox they meant they wouldn't fully support Firefox, though it's a nice idea.Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
