Mozilla Ditches Google For Yahoo!
Meet its new sugar daddy.
After 10 years of partnership (and ~$300 million / year) it looks like Mozilla and Google have decided to part ways.
In a new deal announced yesterday, the open source organization has announced a 5 year search deal where Yahoo! will be the default search provider for Firefox (and yes, you can always switch it back to Google).
One has to wonder how much did Yahoo offer and whether or not Google did not care enough to counter its competitor’s offer.

$300/year? I understand why they switched.
Bas news, I prefer Google.
