i mentioned to my girlfriend that it was just a matter of time before i see in the news that google aquired mozilla for the sole purpose of having firefox. so she suggested i do a whois on "googlefox". holy shit.... google owns it!!! :D Looks like they have owned it since 04 and was last updated in 05. Did they already have plans on buying firefox?

so i did some more googling on "google fox" and "googlefox". i've only found one article that pertains to it and that is a deal google has with fox (that owns fox news:rolleyes: ) and i doubt it has anything to do with that.

what do you guys think?
