Mozilla Gifts Microsoft IE Team Customary Cake

btarunr · Oct 29, 2012

A nice little game Microsoft's Internet Explorer team and Mozilla play is gifting each other cake each time the other launches a new version of their browser. Mozilla sent Microsoft the latest one, to congratulate it on MSIE 10 launch (along with a much bigger one, of Windows 8). In its tweet, the MSIE team thanked Mozilla for the cake, and said it's looking forward to a version of Firefox optimized for Windows 8. It is rumored that Mozilla does/has in the past sent recipes along with their cake (keeping it open-source all the way). Microsoft launched its slickest, fastest version of Internet Explorer with Windows 8, a version for Windows 7 is slated for November.

Google can't send a cake they are not as cool.

Gotta love how they sent the recipe to keep it open-source.

They'll just name the next version of their android os after a cake.

I like how the lack of a comma in the bottom phrase subtly changes the meaning. Instead of "Love, Mozilla" it says "Love Mozilla" as a sort of subliminal message.

So right now...M$ has gotten 10 cakes while Mozilla has gotten...what are we, 16? 17? 20?

Suddenly I realize the truth behind Mozilla's insane version numbering. It isn't to look better than others, its to keep their programmers fed!!

Mozilla likes cake!

That's weird. The last time Firefox crashed for me I had 80+ tabs, each of which are of animated gifs. Did the same with Chrome, same thing happened. :laugh:

dj-electric · Oct 29, 2012

I don't find it weird at all. The internet is filled these days with pissed-off people having their FF crashing and freezing, I'm just one of them.

the lack of comma is great, and the open source recipe is the *drumroll* icing on the cake

Ha! First thing I noticed. I don't think it's really subliminal though, it's rather clear that the meaning is different, though from what I understand, pastry chefs do not like commas and periods because it can cause problems which then can appear to be mistakes in the decorating of the cake - did you notice the bottom row of the blue dots?

I have gotten fond of chrome since getting a android phone. It allows me to use the same account on both the browser and phone.

micropage7 · Oct 29, 2012

WhiteLotus · Oct 29, 2012

So will they be posting that recipe online? I kind of want to make it...
