As a Newbie myself, this is the way I see it:
Debian is a conservative product. The latest distro is not a work in
process, every effort is made to make it ready to work without
unpleasant surprises.
Ubuntu takes a more aggressive stance with its product. They want the
latest and greatest NOW! They are good at avoiding most disasters with
their testing but they intend to be on the cutting edge of performance,
features and bling.
It seems there are some "innovations" in Firefox that concerns the
Debian folks. They choose to not endorse the current Firefox by hanging
on to an earlier version which they have tagged IceWeasel.
It would be interesting to read the differences between FireFox/IceWeasel.
For the moment, I like the Debian business plan for me.
