Firefox 3.0 First Beta is already available for download!

November 24th, 2007

Mozilla has released the new and improved Firefox 3 on its beta version. How will Firefox 3 improve on things?

- Performance improvements, including over 300 memory leak fixes, perennial problems with Firefox since the beginning and an issue that plagues it badly today

- Firefox 3 does seem quite a bit speedier than version 2.

- With its intuitive search, users can auto-scour their surfing and browsing history and bookmarks for visited URLs and even page titles, making it easier to find “lost” pages as you type.

- Bookmarking is easier to do (just one click) and organization of bookmarks is also improved.

- Security improvements

- Several other features found on their development blog.

Firefox 3 Beta 1 is freely available for download, it’s not recommended for general users at this time. There are still plenty of bugs in the system, some pages won’t render right, and, most importantly, very few Firefox 2 add-ins work with Firefox 3 at all (not even toolbars).

    So have you tried it already?

    I am currently trying it. So far, so good. Although I haven’t explored the new features yet.

    Some plugins and websites like MyYahoo maybe incompatible with this beta version.

    I tried it (for work purposes, testing web applications). It certainly is very buggy.
