It was whilst working for Netscape that Ross quickly began feeling unsatisfied with the web browsers that were available at the time and it was then that he began thinking about ways in which to create the best web browser possible. Ross then went on to inrole at the Stanford university after working as an intern at the Netscape communications corporation. After having problems with the platform that he was using, Blake began designing his own and started working for America online, which had purchased Netscape only recently. He also discovered a version of Netscape when it was in its open source and started contributing software to this platform. He has now had nominations from Wired magazine for their top rave award and has also worked with Facebook on several projects.īlake began getting interested in computers from a very early age and would play games such as SimCity, which would help him develop his ideas about computers and video games in general. The search engine has become incredibly popular and this is due to the high level of input from Blake Ross, who is a software engineer from America.
Mozilla Firefox was created by Blake Ross and had additional input by Dave Hyatt.
