Following the announcement that Internet Explorer 7 would add built-in support for RSS news feeds, there has been a lot of discussion over two key points: firstly, what to call them and secondly what icon to use. Microsoft developers shared conceptual designs in October, but have now settled on a preexisting icon that of Firefox.

Jane Kim, program manager for RSS in IE said, “I’m excited to announce that we’re adopting the icon used in Firefox.” Kim added, “We’ll be using the icon in the IE7 command bar whenever a page has a feed associated with it, and we’ll also use it in other places in the browser whenever we need a visual to represent RSS and feeds.” Microsoft says it will continue to work with Mozilla to induce consistency between browsers.

    Why should i care, firefox is awful, no support for activeX, too slow, rendering awful and renders Java and other stuff not properly and causes low speed

    Firefox is awful, netscape still owns firefox, and FireFox is a failed project which is only ran because it is overadvertised, without ads it would be junk,

    Rot In Pain FireFox (R.I.P)
