Firefox renew deal with Google, Firefox 9 Available for Desktop and Android Market

Firefox was in a precarious position for a while because the search deal with Google was running out and that was the main source of cash for the non-profit Mozilla Foundation. Firefox fans can breathe a sigh of relief as there is a new deal that ensures Google sponsorship for another three years.

After reports that Chrome has surpassed Firefox for the second spot in the most popular browser leaderboard, it looked uncertain if Google still had interest in Firefox. It turns out it does and Google will remain the default search provider for Firefox for the foreseeable future.

Firefox 9 for Android left the BETA channel to the release channel, It Now available for Desktop PC's and Android Mobile phones 2.2+ with flash and HTML5 support. Also it has a tablet specific design for Android tablets.
