How do you use this wacky tagging feature?

Double-click the Star icon, then add a tag. Typing that tag in the address bar will display the tagged URL's.

Also, you can tag multiple bookmarks by dragging them all up to the specific tag. This can only be done from the bookmarks organizer/library.

Anyone who says Opera is better, you obviously don't know why Firefox is even used. Obviously, people just surfing the web, opera IS faster. BUT, for heavy/power web users/developers, the extensions available for Firefox make it the best web browser. Here's a pic to help you understand.

Browsers
 
Opera FTW, most of the good extentions are simlpy built into it. Speedial, open closed tabs, mouse gestures and many more come included.
 
The OS X skin is terrible. All the screens I have seen showed the Safari look, but I have the ugly round buttons. WTF?

adblock plus, firebug, fireftp, greasemonkey, etc?


I didn't think so.

Anyways, open closed tabs is included in ff3, mouse gestures isn't really that useful and it's simple to find a good extension to do it anyways, no unneeded bloat included if your not going to use it. Speedial is also simple to find an extension for, and again, isn't included so people are forced to have things they don't need.

Get the NASA Night Launch theme, it's the best ff theme evar!

It looked cool on the site, but after installing it I don't like it

I like it so far for the dark-colored theme alone. Thanks
 
i don't like the auto-complete on the address bar now. if i start typing a web address i want it to suggest stuff based on that address, not list every website i've ever visited with the word i'm typing in it.
 
adblock plus is reason enough to use Firefox over Opera. I used Opera for a while, but switched to FF + Adblock, never going back unless Opera gets similar functionality.
 
Download site was slow as hell, but I finally got it. It promptly crashed the first time I closed the application. 🙂

X.0 version software... when will I ever learn?

I think Ballmer is having a fit about the new firefox...
Damn you firefox!

haha, that was funny, guy looks like he is taking a shit in that picture or something
 
Just installed it! I like it and it's pretty fast.

addons installed:
falshblock
noscript
tab mix plus (not official version but works great)

edit: I don't see why everyone is hating on the new theme.

edit 2: Does it annoy anyone that the text is drag and drop? I like to highlight text with the cursor while I'm reading, and I end up dragging whole pages of text around on accident. Eff.
 
Hey guys, I think my adblock still works because I still get that option, but where can I get the noscript and new adblock addons?


Oh, and what about Chrome tabbing? Is there a 3.0 addon for that? Thanks.
