Goodbye Netscape Navigator
Written by Planet Lowyat on March 1, 2008 – 10:10 pm -
Long long time ago, I used to have Netscape Navigator as my primary Internet browser but Firefox is my first choice now.
Goodbye and Sayonara to Netscape Navigator that now owned by AOL, will no longer be supported after 1 March 2008, the company has said.
The company recommends that users upgrade their browser to either Firefox or Flock, which are both built on the same underlying technologies as Navigator.
“I think we represent the hope that was of Netscape,” Mitchell Baker, chair of the Mozilla Foundation which coordinates development of Firefox, told BBC News.
“We have picked up many of the things that Netscape launched but we’ve taken them further in terms of openness and public participation.”
