FireFox 3.6
You often see a pop up window in order to upgrade your older version of firefox. More than 1 million users have downloaded and installed firefox 3.6 since its launch in mid January.I have observed that since last week or two this pop up is appearing rather frequently. Does this mean that Mozilla is aggressively forcing us to upgrade our firefox?
This popup window appears after 60 seconds of keyboard activities and comes with 3 options "Ask Later", "No Thanks" and "Get the New Version". If you opt for "Ask Later" the popup window will come after 24 hours. If you chose - "No Thanks" and decide later to upgrade firefox, you will just need to run "Check for Updates" from help menu.
Performance: According to Mozilla, Firefox 3.6 is some three times faster than Firefox 3.0, and about 20% faster than 3.5. The most noticeable new feature in the new Mozilla browser is Personas, which allows users to personalize the look of Firefox. Other new features are, a "plug-in updater" that will detect out-of-date plug-ins, "form complete", and open video and audio via HTML 5 for full-screen display and poster frames.
Firefox 3.6 is not a major release so please do not expect any revolutionary changes in web browser technology.

IE sucks...
yep..
We can't dump IE as all sites via which we need to make payments are still optimized for IE. Try booking an airline ticket or accessing you net banking via Chrome/Firefox/Safari/Opera and then try it using IE and you will understand what I am talking about.
Till the corporate world does not adapt other browsers IE is safe!
Good post keep it up
