Firefox Beta

Posted by: Hammer / 11:22 AM

Anyone else using the new Firefox 2.0 beta 1? Best feature so far: built-in spell checking for all text boxes (including the text box I'm typing this post in). Second best feature so far? That the built-in spell checker doesn't recognize the word Firefox.

This release is supposed to have better support for RSS feeds, but I am, to date, unimpressed. I've managed my RSS feeds using Sage for a long time. Sage isn't yet compatible with the Firefox Beta. Live Bookmarks just doesn't cut it. What I really want to know is "Has this website been updated since I last checked". Sage told me that. Live Bookmarks (as far I can tell) doesn't.

It is easy to try -- you can install it along side your regular Firefox. Every crash you get just makes the product stronger!
