Firefox 4 Beta (version 12) is Out!

Well the last time I used Firefox 4 beta was around beta 9 or 8 couldn't remember but the rest assured I wasn't impressed. I mean starting with fonts which looks horrible + the slower loading times, etc I was with it like 10-20 min at max and just switched back to the 3.6 + version.

Anyway they've been releasing a lot of "beta' for Firefox now and has dragged the "releasing date" with them as well for sometime now. According to their release note the beta "12" version includes few improvements such as

*. Enhanced performance upgrade on flash player.

*. Better plug-in compatibility with hardware acceleration enabled.

*. They've fixed that annoying "feature" which used to display the URL whenever you point your mouse over a link on the location. Now with this update it is brought back to the default bottom window section.

*. Better security, stability support.

According to mozilla they hope that this would be the final beta release of the upcoming major Firefox 4 full version. And to be honest I haven't used this version because of the "experiences" that I had before so until they release the full version, think I'm gonna stick with the older version for now.

If you want to install it and try it out then go to this official firefox 4 beta downloading page.  

Mozilla Firefox 4 Beta 9 is Out! (4.0b9) - Could Be the Last Beta Release

Mozilla foundation has released the latest beta version (9) of the Firefox4 web browser and according sources this may will be the last of the beta testing also. But this pretty much depends on the bugs (shiz! don't panic) that could be "discovered" in this new release. And hopefully if nothing major (bad one) discovers then the next release will the the actual Firefox4 long awaited release.

To be honest to this day I still use the Firefox browser and quite happy with it (the 3.6 + )version. But the new 4 version will bring a re polished interface + numerous other improvements such as better online HD playback support, enhanced 3D rendering engine, faster Java script and better looking fonts, speed up browser loading times and a bit compassionate on your system memory (well not everyone has 10 GB RAM errrrrrrr).

And unlike many other software releases you can use the firefox beta versions because this is an Open Source project and unlike closed sourced applications both bugs and fixes arrive pretty faster with these software dudes (gotcha Microsoft!).

So anyone who want to try it - Click here for the Firefox4 beta 9 download link.

*. Now be a bit compassionate about them and if you found errors then "try" to send them a feedback through the easy to use addon would ya!.
