Firefox's Future Looks May Radically Redesign the Browser Interface

ReadWriteWeb brings us an interesting look at what future Firefox versions might look like. The short answer - not much like any web browser you've seen before.
How about an iTunes-style interface that shows web page or content thumbnails in the main pane with media libraries, browsing history, surflists, and statistics in the left pane? Or, how about tabs, applications, and work spaces in the left pane to take full advantage of today's widescreen displays? Either way, the once-sharp distinctions between a web browser interface and an operating system management interface like Windows Explorer have become very blurry. While the jury's still out on the Firefox of the future's interface, it looks as if the Ubiquity command-line interface will definitely make it into Firefox by version 3.6.
Are you ready for a new browser experience? Take a look at the prototypes, mockups, and demos, then hit Comment and sound off.
thanks

Can't people just STOP when they get a working browser? Make it faster, less memory intensive sure....the rest.....is STUPID! Why mess with a good thing :/
Take an OS, and edit out all the efficiency, and what you have left is a post-XP Microsoft operating system :)
These are prototypes....

The article makes it clear that the illustrations are "prototypes, mockups, and demos." If you follow the first link in the second paragraph, you'll see that the top illustration is from an article by the head of Information Architects. He is working with Mozilla on future versions of Firefox.

It's amazing how illogical a business built on binary logic can be.

Ok, at first when i saw this i thought, hey, this must be some kind of april fools joke, but then irealized it was published on the 15th, today. Hate to break it to the author of this but that is a screen shot from a common firefox skin called ACE Safari Foxdie, and is available on all the major OS's (windows, mac and linux). Just thought i'd set things straight. Here is the skins official homepage: http://tanjihay.deviantart.com/art/Foxdie-3-0-2-60350715 and the page from firefox addons: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/6124

95% of computer users are not using a Mac, that should speak to software designers.
