The Mozilla Foundation and Microsoft have decided on a common icon between their
two browsers.
According to the Vole Bogs, here, Volish servitors met with John Lilly and Chris
Beard from Mozilla and agreed to use the Firefox RSS Feed icon in IE too.
The blog says that Microsoft will be using the icon in the IE7 command bar
whenever a page has a feed associated with it, and it will appear in other
places in the browser whenever we need a visual to represent RSS and feeds.
"This isn’t the first time that we’ve worked with the Mozilla team to exchange
ideas and encourage consistency between browsers, and we’re sure it won’t be the
last," the blog said.
IE7 will get a public pre-release build next year.
