Firefox 1.5 Beta 1 Released

Mozilla has released a Beta (test) version of it's upcoming Firefox 1.5 Browser. This is not the final version, but one that has been released for users to check for any bugs or other problems.

I downloaded it last night, and so far it has been working well. The only "problem" is that my installed "extensions" and "themes" are not working, but that's understandable, since the authors of those haven't had a chance to update them.

Some things you'll notice right away ...

the pages seem to load up much more quickly and the back/forward button action is almost instantaneous!

You can also "drag and drop" the tabs on the tab bar ... another nice feature to keep tabs organized.

There are others ... but haven't played around to check them yet.
