Firefox 3.6: I am more than my Monkey

,----[ Quote ]
| But now that JavaScript performance has come 
| so far, Beltzner says, it's time to look for 
| other ways of boosting browser performance. 
| "JavaScript performance for the longest 
| time... was the most noticeable thing that 
| made the web slow, and it was one of the 
| most noticeable things that prevented web 
| developers from being able to really 
| interesting interactive applications," he 
| explains.

Review: Firefox 3.6 RC gives new life to an old browser

,----[ Quote ]
| The Web browsing world is exciting again.
| Google's Chrome browser is faster than fast and
| there's serious thought that Internet Explorer
| may actually lose its top spot in the browser
| market-share wars. But for all the excitement,
| it would be a real mistake to overlook Firefox;
| with the forthcoming release of Firefox 3.6,
| which is now available as a release candidate,
| Mozilla's flagship browser is looking better
| than ever.

The Future of Add-ons

,----[ Quote ]
| The Firefox Add-on platform is the most vibrant
| source of browser innovation in the world, with
| over 1.5 billion downloads and tens of
| thousands of add-ons. Thereâs been a lot of
| speculation over the past couple of days around
| the future of Firefox Add-ons, and how Jetpack
| fits into that future. Thereâs currently a lot
| of misinformation swirling about this topic and
| itâs making people very unhappy. Weâre going to
| attempt to clear things up belowâ

Near-final Firefox 3.6 out for testing

,----[ Quote ]
| The new version includes Personas, which lets
| people customise the browser's appearance;
| blocks third-party software from encroaching
| on its file system turf to increase stability;
| and perhaps most significantly, given the
| competitive threat from Google Chrome, it
| shortens start-up time and improves
| responsiveness and JavaScript performance.
