The Browser Wars are hereby Over!

Tom's Hardware Guide Columns: The Browser Wars are hereby Over!

You have been put on notice: the browser wars are over. Moz doesn't matter. IE is irrelevant. Opera is doing a swan song. Why? In a word, iTunes. And the implications for everyone from Web publishers to you, the hyper-clocked tricked-out geek, are enormous. In fact, being the hyper geek means you can cash in on this trend now. You heard it here first.

A very interesting take on browsers, iTunes, etc. One quibble though, he claims that people get upset with Microsoft extends a standard but not when Apple does. There has been a good amount of anger at Apple for how they extended RSS without opening up what they were doing to public comment and only releasing it when it was a fait accompli.
