Firefox 3.5 is officially released.

Its official head over to Mozilla guys and download 3.5 I am noticing this speed increase already when loading web pages Firefox is back with yet another success.

A couple of my add-ons aren't updated to 3.5 yet, but it's mostly a few themes that I don't use very often.
There was one odd thing that happened in the update: When Firefox restarted after the update, the tab bar was showing, even though I only had one page open in the window. For a moment, I thought it might be a problem, but I checked Tools> Options> Tabs...and saw that "Always show the tab bar" was checked, so I unchecked it. I don's see the need to have a tab showing when there's just one page open.
I think it's running on a bit less RAM, but I can't be sure....guess I should have recorded the average RAM usage for comparison. It does seem snappier.
That's all....gonna go play with it for a while.
Happy updating!!; ▶ Reply to This

I love it so far, hopefully Mozilla will continue to provide great updates like this one!; ▶ Reply to This

Not only that, but Adblock Plus is fully compatible with FF 3.5. :)

I'm also noticing that the interface seems to have been cleaned up a bit on Mac OS X, specifically around the Page Back/Forward buttons, and the irritating gap for the progress wheel has been done away with as well... From a cosmetic and performance standpoint, FF 3.5 is a must-have upgrade.; ▶ Reply to This
