While this probably comes as no surprise to anyone. "Netscape Navigator, now owned by AOL, will no longer be supported after 1 March 2008, the company has said." See article by BBC here. For those of us old timers it is a sad day. Mozilla/Netscape helped get many of us started. I remember eagerly awaiting the new release of Netscape to see what cool new HTML thing I could code. It was also fun riding the rapids between the HTML "standards" of IE and Netscape.
Well its legacy is not dead. It lives on in the Mozilla open source community. If you haven't already given Firefox and Flock a try. You may never go back to IE.
The lights may be out Netscape, but you will never be forgotten.
