Yeah it's a hard thing and we but it's kind of a ten year overnight success story. Mozilla project started about ten years ago and that's when tscape and Microsoft were competing- Netscap started as an experiment to try to figure out how to compete with what they knew was coming from Microsoft from the other end. And it started as a way to get the whole world competing as opposed to just everybody work the Netscape game and over ten years to build this really big community of thousands of people you around the world that help -- us build a really good product that people wanted. You are approximately 2004. Since then we've gone from you know 100000-200000 Users users- have about 300 million now. About 23% of the world these use Firefox are today.

We do with Google cooperate answered on certain ways what are our want to people you know what it that it wants to do when they look for whether or. Illegal Google about their I think I think they've got a good browsers browser know know mean it's not completely full featured yet -- but it's -- good high performance and we have good writers here. What's what's left -- you know. -- It to be in advance and browsers -- were a deal now seems to be more -- tweeks, -- subtle, a more security stuff but of course we don't necessarily see that right right? well what's next in browsers? do there's a time. ton. are 35 -- which we're releasing the summer it's ten times faster than -- what was released or three years ago.
