I've been using the beta release of Mozilla's Firefox3 for the past few days. It's pretty awesome. The Mac version is supposedly a native Mac app, not just a port of another version. When the full version is released in the next couple of weeks, I may well dump the frequently-sucking Safari as my main browser. A short Flash movie showing some of its new features is at

Thanks for the heads-up, Chuck. I'm playing with it now, and looks like they've made a bunch of improvements.

I like Firefox 3 too. I look forward to some of my favorite add-ons being updated for use with it. Anyone know how long that will take from past experience?

Safari 4 is going to have to be much better.


I'm never "lost" cause I always know where "I" am. I just may not know where anything else is or how to get there.
