Mozilla has a very interesting announcement to make for Bing fans out there, it's debuting a Bing-ified version of Firefox which comes with Bing as the default search engine as well as the homepage.

"Mozilla and Bing are pleased to make available Firefox with Bing, a customized version of Firefox that sets Bing as the default search engine in the search box and AwesomeBar and makes Bing.com the default home page," Mozilla announced.

If you're a Bing fan and already have Firefox, you can, of course, make all of these changes by yourself, if you haven't already, or just install the Bing Search add-on which does all of this for you.

Just to be clear, the regular Firefox will still come with Google search by default as well as the custom Mozilla Google Search homepage.

Mozilla debuted a Twitter version of Firefox a couple of months ago. There are already versions of the browse with Yahoo, Yandex and others as the default search engine.
