Firefox 3 review
At last i can test the Firefox 3 
Last night when Firefox 3 launched i can’t download it due bad internet connection in my board-room 
Since my test tool still missing, regretfully i can’t write a detailed review on its performance, sorry
Firefox 3 try to be consistent with its theme with minor changes except for buttons and icons.
Navigation button changed a lot since the ‘back’ button is much bigger than ‘forward’ button because most people use ‘back’ button more often, or so the designer said.
Bookmarking in Firefox is imitating Flock by using a star button to bookmark a website.
All website that ’stared’ will go to Unsorted Bookmark section, thus fo those who seldomly organize their bookmark will have that section messy 
Firefox now use a single form called Library to organize History, Bookmark, Tags, and even Bookmark list backup in a single place.
Firefox’s download manager improved a bit, there’s buttons to pause and continue download process.
Address bar are also improved, it’ll show recommendation as you type based on History and Bookmarks.
Addons section are now showing some recommended addons that you can install right from the menu, but you still have to visit addons website to browse other addons available.
As for the engine. Firefox 3 now support W3C standard and pass the Acid2 test. You can see that yellow face clearly with Firefox.
Althought Firefox 3 engine improved, it only score 71 point for new standard support in Acid3 test.
The developer claim that Firefox will consume less resource, but it still use 64000 KB memory eventhought i only use one tab for browsing. On idle or minimize state it still consume at about 22000 KB of memory.
That’s all for the review i can write, not much for a review
After Firefox was launched, Flock annouce that they will release their second version using Firefox 3 engine. If Flock 2 is coming out, i’ll review it for sure.
I’ve tried it..
great.. I like it.. seems faster (alias nggak lemot n–> sugesti sih :p)
But 2 of my favorite add-ons (switch proxy and free download manager) are incompatible with it.. Hiks.. :((
So, uninstall.. n go back to Firefox 2..
hopefully, maybe someday those 2 will become compatible with firefox 3,,
(doooh.. hosh hosh hosh.. bahasa inggrisnya acak2an.. he he he,, cm tyo nulisnya pake bhs inggris sih.. ya sudah komennya jg..:D)
Yup, some add-ons are still incompatible with the new version. But it’ll be a compatible version soon, since the add-ons makers want their add-ons used by many people ^_^
@ami: ganti jadi foxyProxy en DownThemAll aja
dijitku ancur… ga bisa dibuka pake FF3.. napa yah?
ato ada yang salah ama scriptku? karna kalo liat dojo.campuss dibuka di ff3 ga ada masalah
ow.. i hate something new
Cara render Firefox 3 agak berubah dari Firefox 2, klo sekarang lulus tes Acid2 sedangkan yg sebelumnya ga lulus. Mungkin aja gara2 perubahan cara render tersebut jadi keliatan aneh karena script yg dibikin kebiasa ngikutin cara render yg lama.
Coba aja dulu dibuka pake browser lain, klo masih ancur juga berarti emang salah script
nda kok.. pake IE masih asik aja. hehe
mas btyop jg aktif di webdevel?
addon yang paling gwa rindukan adalah imgLikeOpera.
addon buat milih apa gambar :
- ditampilkan semua
- ditampilkan dari web tersebut aja
- ditampilkan dari cache
- tidak ditampilkan
buat gwa pengguna quota based sangat membantu, tapi sampe saan ini belum nemu penggantinya
@rasix: klo dibilang aktif di webdevel juga tidak, tergantung ada proyek apa tidak
@ahmy: coba aja tunggu, siapa tau yg pembuat addon nya update supaya compatible untuk FIrefox 3
Glad I just found your wordpress blog through Google.
Found just what I was looking for, thanks =)
Btw, wat plugins are you using??
I usually use:
- Adblock Plus
- DownThemAll
- Firebug
- Fireflix
- Rikaichan
- Scrapbook
-Screen grab
- ScribeFire
They’re really usefull in my opinion.
