Firefox 3 is Out
Firefox is a great web browser that I’ve used since 2000 when it was named Phoenix. Now, Firefox 3 is out and it has several nice features, including a few security features that are unavailable elsewhere. For a good review of Firefox 3’s new features, see this screencast by Firefox developer Mike Beltzner. Also, here is a nice review by Walt Mossberg.
I still use Safari as my main web browser because of its PDF viewing capabilities and its close integration with OS X. However, it’s great to have developers pushing the envelope of what a web browser can be.
UPDATE 6/18/2008: I found this new Firefox 3 plugin that enables Firefox to use OS X’s native PDF kit. Now Firefox displays PDF’s inline very smoothly. One less reason not to use Firefox.
