Firefox 3.5 Can Still Learn From Its Competition, by Michael Scalisi, PCWorld (Jul 3)
Message to Firefox - the new 3.5 could be better still.
+ Apple Safari - fast
+ Chrome - "clean, fast and simple". One tab can crash without taking down the browser
+ IE 8 - has coloured tabs
Reminder about Firefox - "Firefox 3.5 has caught up in some key areas. It improved its speed with its new Gecko 1.9.1 rendering engine and TraceMonkey JavaScript engine. It borrowed from Google Chrome the break-away tab feature, which lets you drag a tab from the main browser window into its own window. This feature is highly useful in multi-monitor setups where it’s desirable to compare two pages side-by-side. Finally, Firefox 3.5 adds Private Browsing Mode (aka "porn mode"), which all other mainstream browsers already had."
