I was reading an old Wired mag that had a story about Firefox, it’s past and it’s future. Something struck me the other day, and reading the article came across as great timing, but I was thinking about ways to get Firefox to more people and make it more interesting. Firefox flavors.

Releasing packaged Firefox apps with specific extensions, scripts and plugins geared towared a specific interest might be a wonderful direction to go. I am very political and would love to have access to a plethora of politically oriented scripts, skins and extensions to help with my web experience. My sister on the other hand is very big into eBay, why couldn’t there be a browser that is tailored to her needs? She is mainly interested in using eBay any time she is online.

You can do some of these thing very easily as it is now, but some folks have no idea where to even began, like my sisters. But an eBay Firefox browser, co-branded through eBay, would be a great way to spread the software and a great way to enhance the web experience.
