Firefox Strategy is a Recipe for Failure Mozilla's rapid release of Firefox 5, and end of support for Firefox 4 paint the browser into a corner where only true Firefox loyalists will be willing to follow. By Tony Bradley Jun 22, 2011 7:53 AM Firefox 5 was launched as planned and on schedule this week--and also marked the "end of life" for support of Firefox 4. Mozilla's rapid release schedule, and the strategy to essentially make each new release a requirement to continue support paint Firefox into a corner where only loyal hobbyists can reliably use the browser. The latest flagship version of the Mozilla Web browser comes a mere two months after the official release of Firefox 4, and also marks the end of official support for Firefox 4. From Mozilla's perspective, the "security patch" for Firefox 4 is to upgrade to Firefox 5. We can assume that in another couple months when Firefox 6 emerges, that Firefox 5 will suffer the same fate. pcworld.com
