Firefox 5 is out.

like its predecessor, the Firefox 5 user interface doesn't quite work on the Mac - it isn't as Apple-y as Safari or as pretty as Chrome, and even applying themes doesn't help much - but it's a lovely thing on Windows.
Whichever version you use, you get the ability to turn open tabs into App Tabs, which keeps key web-based services such as Gmail or Twitter visible without taking up too much space, and you can organise tabs into Tab Groups, which is handy if you're researching something involving multiple topics.
Annoyingly, the only way to save your Tab Groups is by shutting down Firefox; unless you've disabled Firefox's session restore, your groups will be intact when you open the browser again. It'd be much better if you could save groups as you do bookmarks: while you can save a tab group using Firefox's Bookmarks > Bookmark All Tabs option, which only saves the currently selected group. A Save Tab Groups option would be handy here.
As before, Firefox has an address bar and a search box, although if you don't type a URL the address bar takes you to a web search anyway.
 
The best about mozila is Do Not Track option. You can browse the web and you cant be tracked
 
they just released firefox 4 few days now firefox 5... lol... they are really quick in releasing new updates.
 
Well at first it was a leak I think.
But anyways, Firefox is speeding up their update cycle.
 
It this just a leak? Because I know Firefox 4 just came out and would think they might as well would just skip it if they wanted to release 5 this fast. :p
 
Its nice they just released Firefox 5 like straight after 4. I like the new version pretty much and i find it faster than before :D

Kind Regards,

FF5 has been out for a long time through BETA. And no it's not necessarily better yet since developers still need to fix all their addons.
 
5? O.O I'm still using 4.0 beta. For some reason my Firefox web browser never notified me that version 5 was out. Thanks for the update.
 
wow, looks nice. I never checked the mozilla website. Now I see it's a new version out. I am stil using version 4 of firefox but I will give a try to 5. Thanks for sharing.
 
I used the beta version and currently have 5.0. Not a big difference, the sites do seem to load a bit faster? I am not exactly sure what they changed in this version, maybe all background stuff?
