Google snags another Mozilla developer

I wouldn't say it qualifies as a 'brain drain' just yet, but Google has hired another developer from Mozilla.

First Ben Goodger announced in his blog that he would be collecting a paycheck from Google and, now, Darin Fisher wrote in his blog that he is also going to Google. Both contend that they will maintain active roles in Mozilla moving forward.

Mozilla and Firefox have garnered considerable press and attention over the last several months, but there are more browsers emerging to choose from, as a story in The New York Times this week points out.

The article offers advice on choosing a particular browser based on user needs, whether that be tighter security than IE can offer, or special interests, such as a browser for "Star Trek" fans.
