The new support for HTML 5 and its ability to play videos without using a third party insecure browser plugin is a big plus.
Private browsing mode allows you to shop on-line for birthday or anniversary gifts without leaving any info on the system at all.
Many of the features of Firefox 3.5 are included in other browsers with different names. Why should you use Firefox instead of Chrome or Internet Explorer? The simple answer is that Firefox is Free. You may be thinking that Internet Explorer is also free…but its not Free. You can only use Internet Explorer if you pay Microsoft for your copy of Windows which then includes Internet Explorer as part of that fee. Unlike Internet Explorer, Firefox is Free and it works on all major operating systems . You can use Firefox on Linux, your Mac or your Windows PC and have the same browsing experience on all three platforms. Firefox is also Open Source which means you can freely add too or change Firefox to meet your needs.
So now you know what you need to do… head on over to getfirefox.com and be a part of another record setting download day. Support Free and Open software and help break the stranglehold that Microsoft has on the worlds desktops.
Once you have Firefox downloaded and installed finish up your day by adding Thunderbird and Open Office to your happy new “Free and Open desktop”.
What else can you do? Now that you are part of the Free and Open Source movement don’t just sit there, tell your friends. Spread the love
What are you waiting for? Go already.
