Firefox 2.0 almost here

Posted October 9, 2006 * Comments(1)

I’m using Firefox 2.0 Release Candidate 2.0 and I like it. A couple of features that are immediately useful:

  • Built-in spell checking for text areas and forms: your text is automatically spell checked. Very nice.
  • New links are opened in tabs by default. I don’t have to constantly control-click anymore.
  • Each tab gets its own close button.

You can get the full list of improvements at the above link. Apparently the javascript performance is improved, which sounds plausible because the new Yahoo! Mail loads faster now.

It’s also stable, no problems so far. Give it a go.

    I Love Firefox and I like all of it’s extensions such as trailfire. Trailfire allows you to place a comment on a ny web page and create a sequence of comments. If you like new cool technologies I think you should check this out.
