Special eBay Browser

See? This is what I expected when Netscape decided to open source the Mozilla code: specialized browsers. Now, someone has come out with an eBay specific browser. Of course, it's based on IE and not Netscape. And it costs $20. That's somewhat silly. Anyway, I always thought that Yahoo! should take over Netscape's browser business and make a browser that ties in all of Yahoo's features. That's a browser I would probably use.

Yahoo Browser integration
Yahoo has already integrated its portal into the browser. It's called the yahoo companion. Pretty cool especially the networked bookmarks.

  Re: Yahoo Browser integration
  Yeah, I know about Yahoo Companion, and it's cool, but it requires people to figure out how to install it. I think they could get a lot more out of a full browser with Yahoo features and get it pre-installed on computers, and send out AOL-style discs with it or something along those lines...
