Ever wonder where the phrase “jump the shark” came from? It’s dates back to the once wildly popular TV show Happy Days. It’s widely accepted that the show lost its way, and its audience, in an episode where the lovable hero “Fonzie” jumps a shark on water skis in a pathetic attempt to keep the audience’s attention. I wonder how if Firefox jumped the shark when its parent company Mozilla decided to put Firefox on a hyper-accelerated release schedule last summer. Today, five releases later, Firefox keeps falling farther behind Google’s Chrome in popularity, it’s not very stable, and it can’t keep up with Chrome in speed.
I’m not happy about this. I’ve used Firefox before it even hit the 1.0 mark. In its early days, Firefox was the best Web browser around. It was the most popular open-source program on Windows for years. Indeed, even if you loved Internet Explorer (IE) and wouldn’t touch Firefox with a ten-foot pole you owe Firefox a debt of gratitude. It was Firefox, which forced Microsoft to finally kill up the horrible IE 6. Today, it’s a different story.
