Is Dailymotion making history with their use of the latest Firefox Beta browser? If what I am reading is accurate, then I would suggest that Dailymotion is way ahead of the curve. And this includes Netflix, YouTube and Hulu.
The real key however, is whether or not others will be following along with what Dailymotion is trying to do. If other big name sites also tag along here, then this event suddenly becomes a whole heck of a lot more significant.
Open video standards are badly needed in a world filled with Flash and other proprietary formats. Hopefully what Dailymotion is trying to do turns into something viral.
