Yesterday asked gives wrote an entry at the Ask Jeeves Blog named Mozilla's On Fire (http://blog.ask.com/2005/02/mozillas_on_fir.html). In that entry they discuss three possibilites for AJ.

(1) Making Ask Jeeves desktop search an open source project.

(2) AJ-branded or co-branded Firefox browser.

(3) Technology called Octopus, which can benefit from the XUL platform.

Any advice for Ask Jeeves based on this information?
