Firefox 2.0 – Worth the Upgrade?

Posted by Kerry on 30th October 2006

imgres.jpgIts amazing that a new version of a product can really excite people, especially on something like a web browser. Although I suppose that I spend most of my working day in

New features to the latest version of Firefox include the spell checker, which works with pretty much every bit of text you enter (including wordpress software :P ) as well including a phishing detector which is obviously a good thing what with all those scam sites set up these days.

The news is so exciting that even the BBC news posted an article about it. This is great because it really is spreading the word about Firefox.

Only thing that I miss about the old Firefox browser is the x to close tabs being at the side instead of on each tab :( (not particularly a big deal). Definitely worth the upgrade though in my opinion.

Just found this article on Wikipedia about QR codes. Not sure if i’m just being slow and not realised these before but it seems like a great way to spread information and can be easily accessed. Might try and make a couple of my own.
