Fox Testing

If you feel like testing Firefox 2 Beta 2, head on over to Mozilla and check it out:

Firefox 2 Beta 2 is a developer preview release of our next generation Firefox browser and it is being made available for testing purposes only. Firefox 2 Beta 2 is intended for Web application developers and our testing community. Current users of Firefox 1.x should not use Firefox 2 Beta 2 and expect all of their extensions and plugins to work properly.

Some things to look forward to:

Visual refresh
Built in Phishing Protection (no, it doesn’t guarantee that a van full of oddly smelling strangers won’t pull up in your driveway blasting A Picture of Nectar)
Enhanced search capabilties
Improved tabbed browsing By default, Firefox will open links in new tabs instead of new windows, and each tab will now have a close tab button. Power users who open more tabs than can fit in a single window will see arrows on the left and right side of the tab strip that let them scroll back and forth between their tabs. The History menu will keep a list of recently closed tabs, and a shortcut lets users quickly re-open an accidentally closed tab. (My favorite)
Resumed browsing sessions
In-line spell check!
Preview/Subscribe to web feeds (also awesome)

There’s plenty more at Mozilla’s release notes page.

That rocks now if only it can cheque mine grammer to!!!!!!

I have a feeling the spellcheck is going to annoy me. Plus, most of my extensions no longer work. But overall, I likey.

Power users who open more tabs than can fit in a single window . . .

what is this, like a +3 browser of invincibility? I’d roll the six-sided die on it.

love, love, love your new design.
