Jun 30, 2009 Featured Article, Tech Buzz

I just downloaded FireFox 3.5 and all I can say now is lot faster than previous versions.

Luckily, most of my extensions remain compatible such as delicious, greasemonkey scripts, twitterfox, Stumpleupon etc. Also, they have done many tweaks to existing features as well. In the race of browser war, Firefox 3.5 is really catching up with other browsers in terms of speed along with early support for emerging Web standards.

Speed matters on the web due to the large no of web applications using JavaScript. There is a new javascript engine, called Tracemonkey, created by Mozilla for FireFox 3.5 that helps in optimizing these JavaScript powered web sites performance.

Like other browsers (IE, Chrome, Safari) Firefox also introduced the “Private Browsing Feature” which lets you use your friend’s or relative’s browser without touching their browser history.

    Gave it a try to open my personal website and it still complains with “encoding error”. Doesn’t handle compression properly as compared to IE, Safari, Chrome etc.

      I tried your site in Firefox 3.5, it works. I am not getting “encoding error” anymore. So you may want to advice your visitors to use FireFox 3.5 for “best view” :)
