The new Firefox 1.0 Preview release is out. I recommended several times from my blog to switch over from Internet Explorer to Mozilla Firefox for Windows users. I repeat that again, and I will repeat it often. This is a lightening fast, small to download (only 4.5 MBs), open source and easy to use with excellent features over IE, web browser.
This version adds a nifty feature of find in page feature. When you press CTRL+F a search bar pops up at the base of the page and you can search on the fly (while you are typing) the interior of the page. Found terms automagically hilited in the page. Pressing enter takes you to the next found term. If nothing is found the search bar turns red so you don`t waste time. The search looks something like this.
Also for the bloggers, Now there are Live bookmarks which contain the RSS of your blogs, or of course the blogs that you like to read. I know that there are zillion RSS feed watchers out there but an RSS collector in your favourite browser is certainly a beautiful one stop shop
I must mention also that KDE`s konqueror does the same thing by adding a navigation menu on KDE 3.3. So you have an RSS tracker at the same place where you have your directories, filesystems, a mini media player, etc… Here is a screenshot from KDE. One pic is better than tenthousand words.
