Firefox 3 beta 5 is out, well it came out yesterday but I just updated a few minutes ago. Once again this feels like a solid release from Mozilla. If you use web apps that use a good amount of javascript upgrading to or running the latest betas in conjunction with version 2 releases may be a good idea. The Firefox interface has also been greatly improved in the last two beta’s. It feels a lot more Mac-ish on my Mac, what I mean is it fits in with the look of OS X. It is currently not running on my Windows box because FireBug does not have support for the latest betas. Oh and if you are running vista the navigation bar is not transparent like IE is. I remember reading an interview with about the new design’s where they said that that won’t be coming until Firefox 4, but do not quote me on that as I cant find the story right now. I have The one downside about running the latest beta is that most extensions wont work, sadly no Adblock Plus, Better Gmail, and Better GReader yet. If you would like to try the latest beta you can do so Here.
What do you think of the latest beta?
