A New Mobile Browser From Firefox
As I probably have mentioned a few dozen times on this blog in the past, Firefox by Mozilla has long been my browser of choice. I have just found it more user friendly than IE (Firefox had “tabs” first, which many of us now could not live without), and significantly faster. Plus, I love the addons. I did, however, try Google Chrome when it first came out, but had some privacy concerns which they have now fixed. I may try Chrome again in the future, but for now I am still a FireFox girl.
So, with that in mind, I was quite excited today when I heard that FireFox/Mozilla has released a Beta version of a new mobile browser, called Fennec. Yeah, okay, weird name, but I have been looking for a better mobile browser for quite some time now (Opera Mini is okay, but fails to open many pages for me). The new Mobile Fennec browser should be helpful to many has it has support for FireFox applications, and offers easy to use zooming and scrolling options. It really makes the best of a small screen size, to give the feel of a big screen experience. I’m still getting used to Fennec, but I’d recommend checking it out if you do a lot of mobile surfing.
