Well, some weeks ago I started to use Firefox 4.06 Beta, and I’m very happy with it. It’s too similar to Crome, but is what the people want. Firefox is elegant and fast with pages, but it’s slow at the opening. In my computer (I5, 4GB of ram, nvidia 9500) takes 4 seconds to open the program with some complements, and there is a white window during the opening…What the hell is that?!
Some days ago the Mozilla team have launched the 4.07 Beta. It’s really awesome! Some bugs have been solved like the previous one. But also the interface has changed a little bit:
THERE IS NOT AN STATUS BAR! Why it’s an advantage? Well, a navigator must be like the air. The only purpose of these programs is to show as fast as it can pages. The navigator must show to the user the minimum information, because the focus is the page not the navigator. Crome implements this idea very well, but the Google empire frightens me and I decide not use it.
The new interface is clear and user friendly. Only shows the information when needed. For example, the new interface show the link information at the right of the address bar only when the mouse it’s over a link (like Crome). The reload bottom it’s embedded into the address bar and is the reload and cancel button only when needed.
As strong points in Firefox 4.07b we have a very good support to html 5, webGL and direct2d to improve speed and functions. All the improves are in the Mozilla page.
I think that this navigator is a big step for every Firefox user. What do you think?
