Hello to fellow Firefox user!!
Right now I want to say something about this browser...
If you're using firefox, u will notice that firefox will ask you to change to the newest version, which is Firefox 3.6. Well, it already ask me to upgrade since long, but I just upgrade it a few minutes ago. And right now, I regret that I didn't do it earlier...
So, what's make me love this new version so much? The most important thing is they have change the new tab feature in 3.6. You see, in the old Firefox, if you choose to open a link in a new tab, the new tab will be opened on the far right on the tab list. What's wrong with this? Well, nothing wrong if you are a normal guy who browsing with only less than 10 tabs. But, its really annoy me who browsing with what looks like infinite tabs (fyi, right now there are 26 tabs opened on my browser, with my personal record 50 tabs which all of them are usefull).
What they change is when you open a new tab it's no longer open on the nowhere in the farthest right. Now, when I center click (default shortcut for new tab) a link, it will open right beside my current tab. That's mean when I'm on the, let's say, 7th tab, the new tab will be opened on the 8th tab! For most of you it doesn't do much. But for me, it helps me a lot. Well, that's said, it also has some negative effect for me. When I research something, I usually need it to be organized on a single location on my swarm of tab. So, I think it will hinder me a little (Or maybe you will see another post about Firefox 3.6 with me hating the new new tab feature).
The next thing you should notice is persona. It's not about a group of insane student who fight monsters in a crazy tower maze with creature come from blowing their heads with some guns to prevent the destruction of the world (fellow gamers know what I'm talking about). Persona that I'm talking about is a new feature on firefox. I take that you all have know about theme on firefox. Theme will change appearance of your firefox, from background, font, to buttons. But, with persona, you only change the background of your firefox. Moreover, it can be done with only a few click. You can take it from the gallery, or you can also create a custom Persona if you have install the Persona Plus. If you already create your own, you can also submit it to the gallery and see them used by thousands of Persona user. Basically, Persona is like an equivalent of Desktop Background on Windows. They only provide a different view without changing button, icon, etc. You can also change persona without restarting your firefox. This will help a lot for a guy with infinite tab around. Just imagine how long you must wait for those tabs to load whenever you want to have a fresh appearance on your beloved browser. Thank God its not like that.
So, enough blabbering from me. I hope my simple review can help a lot of you guys to think whether you need to upgrade or not. As I said in my previous post, you can expect a lot of post in the future, and this, this is just a beginning. I have a bunch of topic to post here. Maybe tomorrow I will post again....
This is Benard reporting, see you on the next post!
Aaaaaand, cut!
