I do not have a facebook account (and no twitter, myspace, any of that...). if those ever got merged into firefox, the next thing to do for me would be to compare chrome, safari, and ie to figure out what my next default browser is.
Totally agree with you.
I for one don't want my browser knowing "who I am" - I prefer to let the applications I use know that.

There once was a browser called Netscape 4? Remember what happened to it?
I think Firefox could be better off as an application platform. Let the users decide what they want, make it easy to get and keep the browser slim.

I never even considered the possibility of Facebook building a browser. Thus enlightened, i do believe it is possible...
Flock is a total success. </sarcasm>
I also highly doubt that there are many people anxious to see firefox integrate social networking features. That's the last thing I want them to do, personally. Browsers are platforms. A browser should RUN facebook, not BE facebook. When you try and build software directly into the platform, the results are not pretty. (IE anyone?)
