No extensions for Firefox today. Instead I want you to sit down and listen as I tell you some Firefox Fables. The Web page has to be the greatest Firefox Myths parody I have seen yet. I don’t care if you love Firefox or you hate it, you will find these quotes from the Firefox Fables Web site very funny.

Fable - “Firefox was Designed and Programmed Primarily by Gandhi”

Reality - Mahatma Gandhi had absolutely no involvement in the development of Firefox. In fact, Gandhi died in 1948, 56 years before Firefox 1.0 was released. All of those Firefox fan boys that say otherwise are just making it up, which shows that you can’t trust Firefox users. Meanwhile, Microsoft has been developing Internet Explorer since 1995, much closer to when Gandhi was alive.

Fable - “Firefox is Open Source”

Reality - Firefox is anything but Open Source with multiple project details hidden from the public. “There also plans for enhanced security, blacklisting and anti-phishing measures to be fitted to the new version. However, no details of what they might be have been released yet.

Fable - “Using Firefox will make you Attractive”

In fact, some organizations, such as BeautifulPeople.net, have determined that Firefox users are actually very unattractive, as can be inferred from their site’s notice: “BeautifulPeople.net is only supported by Internet Explorer. You are currently using version: Netscape 5.0. To be able to use. BeautifulPeople you need to update to a newer version of Internet Explorer.”
