Goodbye Mozilla

I've used Mozilla as my primary browser since the 1.0 release. Yes, I read all the criticism of its girth and bloat, but kept coming back because that's where the lion's share of the development was being done. As far as I could tell (and I guess I was misinformed), Phoenix was stuck at a milestone for a long time, and that meant stagnation of development.

Apparently not.

I downloaded the Phoenix nightly build for use in the lab today, and was pleasantly surprised with its speed, size, and apparent inclusion of all the latest Mozilla goodies. Couple this with mozilla.org's plan to focus entirely on Phoenix in the future, and I'm ready to bid the bloat of Mozilla goodbye forever. Hail Phoenix!
