Now try and say that five times fast while holding your tongue and dancing a jig while patting your head and... *smack* *smack* ...thanks lunacy8m, I needed that. FireFox just released RC1 of their upcoming 1.5 version. They have included some awesome features which you needed an extension for in the past. I really like the new drag and drop tab rearrangement and the update functions are more streamlined and easier to do. Some new extensions are being written for the beta versions only and they help to make the FireFox experience even better. I downloaded the IE Tab extension which adds a feature that has been in Netscape 8 for a while, having pages load with IE rendering. I love this because it means I don't have to load IE whenever a page is "optimized for IE" I just click the little FireFox logo in the status bar and it changes to the blue "e" logo of IE and I can optionally set FireFox to always show a given page or site as IE. When you have FireFox 1.5 RC1, who needs anything else? Go grab it at http://www.getfirefox.com and stay tuned for the upcoming release of 1.5!
