Trying out FF Nightly 6.0 alpha 1 at the moment :D
What's new in it? Anything good?
I cannot see anything new just yet looks like 4 but Aurora 5 beta is on it's way :) a bit confusing :)
http://nightly.mozilla.org/
Looks like there arn't many features on the roadmap, its all about stability/future proofing at the moment; I'm quite happy with that as I still think it's too buggy/suffers slowdowns and crashes too much.
Works fine but bugs can happen, not yet so far though.
I meant Firefox in general, not this alpha specifically :) Any stability and speed improvements are welcome on the roadmap, I think it has all the right features currently and they need to polish it up.
call me old fashioned, but isn't the next version after 4 usually 5?
Yeah, its a bit strange, they are working on both concurrently as they are trialling a new development process structure. 5 is due out in the next couple of months.

Beta mate, 5 out live is a little further out then that.
IE 10 could be out before the years out as well.
It is the whole mindset thing. Chrome and Opera are on 10/11 FF on 4 so it must not be as good? The dumb genera user mus think.
Just like winamp.

Firebug is the only reason to keep using firefox.

You not using tab grouping? Your mad if your not. Its a brilliant feature. Anything you do on chrome FF4 does too.
Now running FF 5.0 and nightly (6.01)
Chrome ftw ;)

Chrome ftw ;)
Chrome clears resources better then FF but running a large amount of tabs Chrome uses quadrupedal amount of memory. It is only good if your running a handful of windows.
