DISQUS

Wow, it truly is refreshing to see someone embrace the realization that not EVERY site has to be web 2.0 ajaxalicious. These things are a great direction for some sites on the web, but sometimes, as Netscape has heard, people just want to "read stuff on pages".

I guess they can't really carry one being userpowered with the huge spam issue they are having. Half the stories on the front page get fake votes.

I almost forgot about Netscape. It is good that is is doing something to compete with others.

I have forgotton about netscape well. It would be nice to see them grow again.

I agree with webmaster money and joeychgo. Netscape is kinda like Yahoo! in some way, trying to compete with the big fish to win back their market share. I don't think they'll make it, though.

Netscape's rebirth, if you'd even want to call it that, was little more than a stepping stone for Calacanis. He's obsessed with over-marketing everything. He did really well with Netscape. Once he left though, the decline began. The same is true too though now with his Mahalo project. He's over hyping it, allowing the users and social aspects dictate growth and progress.

A year from now, I'm willing to bet that too will be dead in the water.

netscape is the best!

The question is whether or not this is really being done in response to what users want or what Netscape wants. If they are reacting to what their users want then it's the right thing to do.

I get quite a bit of traffic from the new netscape, cheers for them. :)
