I've just installed the new Firefox version. Too bad the old one didn't let me know there was an update out there!
The
Spread Firefox site is calling all Firefox fans to participate in a community marketing effort with video testimonials and ads from the casual to professional creative user. It's an interesting idea. I believe if it works, next time I would have to know about the update the day it launches and not two weeks later.
I like Firefox for its simplicity. The latest version hanged often and I've read 1.5 is better at that, so I expect not to lose those 20 sites I'm looking at once again or I will definitely have to install a session saver extension. =)
Has anyone try the upcoming IE7? I believe Firefox won't stand up to it. Far more resources, far more users already. I bet if they don't want to be beaten they won't.
I've found
this blog post on the Spread Firefox web site, stating people should be comparing Firefox 1.5 with what's available today, that's IE6. I use Firefox, but I know I will be back to IE7 when it's released.
