Mozilla is rebranding Firefox. The company is asking for feedback on the new look, which will try to cover the various Firefox offerings. For most people, Firefox refers to a browser, but the company wants the brand to encompass all the various apps and services that the Firefox family of internet products cover, “from easy screenshotting and file sharing to innovative ways to access the internet using voice and virtual reality.” The fox with a flaming tail “doesn’t offer enough design tools to represent this entire product family,” Mozilla believes. Instead of recoloring the logo and dissecting the fox, the company wants to start from scratch. That said, the name “Firefox” is staying, so Mozilla doesn’t have that much wiggle room.

My initial reaction was, "Damned silly question!" But, the mental processes answered that - "You haven't been running Firefox, Dummy - you need to check!" Indignantly, I checked, just to prove the mental processes wrong. But, they were right. I am actually running Palemoon and Cyberfox, and occassionally Opera and/or Chromium. Neither of the Firefox derivatives is using a "new" Firefox.
Hmmmm . . . Firefox is actually installed on my system. Maybe I should fire it up, and run it for awhile, to see whether I'm still in touch with base Firefox.
Extensions . . . Time to see what the new Firefox offers?
