Firefox 3.6b1 – First Impression
As you probably already know, the beta of Firefox 3.6 is out, a quick first look.I just gave the beta a go, and I must say it is definitely faster. I tested it by going to Gizmodo and deviantART, two sites I visit on a daily basis that put some serious load on the browser. But this time I could tell there was a hike in speed.
Some of the new features:
- Change the way Firefox looks using Personas.
- Keep your plugins up to date.
- Watch full screen video.
- Enjoy typography on the web using WOFF fonts.
- Feel the speed with improved JavaScript performance, browser responsiveness, and startup time.
- Get the most out of the web with support for new CSS, DOM, and HTML5 web technologies.
- See the release notes for a full list.
And you are greeted by an extremely cool screen, so what more could you want?
