Firefox vs. Internet Explorer - A different style of comparison



BBSpot has tried a very different approach. Other tech sites will bore you with in-depth "technical details" and performance specs in their product analysis. At BBspot they dare to compare the superficialities.

Domain Names

FirefoxFirefox - firefox.com Some kind soul donated the domain to the Mozilla Foundation. At least they own their own domain name.

Internet Explorer - internetexplorer.com Microsoft doesn't even own this one. It's one of those generic search portals masquerading as an IE site.

Conclusion: It was a close battle, but Firefox edges out a victory against the Internet Explorer by a score of 3-2 with 1 tie and wins our Technical Award of Excellence.
