Edge and Opera also had/have a similar feature, yes.
The main thing is that users didn't know about them, or they were too early.
With an extention that you install, you're more likely to use it... besides I think that all this needs is a hardcore community of users, and it will grow from there (just learn from other's mistakes: more recently Soundcloud).
- INTPenis 9y agoJust found out it was Mozilla Talk. I actually thought it was good to be "forced" upon every Firefox user. Unfortunately it came during mass migrations to Chrome. Because if it's an extention you won't have the same impact. If it's forced then you can be sure to connect with every other user of that browser and see what they've said about the website you're browsing. Of course I fear the security issues in such a feature. One XSS vuln and EVERYONE is affected. Edit: I misunderstood. My memory was that it was a built-in feature of Firefox that worked on every site. But Mozilla Talk requires a server infrastructure. Of course, makes sense now that I think about it. Where else would your messages be stored. Perhaps some sort of p2p thing but I don't think Mozilla would go that route yet. It's not mature enough.
