April 5th, 2007Firefox going social with the Coop…
Looks like every web company wants to have the biggest part possible of your social activity these days (Myspace, Facebook, Skyblog…).
It used to be your money through ecommerce & auctions, it’s now your social life everybody wants to have a part of, but don’t be fooled, your social life is just an other way to monetize you, in a better way, through your eyes seeing ads, using affiliation mechanisms, all offers being better targeted at your needs.
Anyway, I saw yesterday the story over at Techcrunch that Mozilla is also going social. It reminded me that almost one year ago, I proposed an equivalent concept to Flock named digifriends… I know they’re working on it but I can’t understand why they are delivering so slowly…
Good luck Mozilla & good luck Flock (that seem to be happy about the news), you have a privileged position to deliver and spread correctly this type of features.
Here’s a mockup I had done in june last year
