Firefox 3
Anyone try it or download the new one? I was thinking of it, since I use firefox all the time.
Its has the Awesome Bar add-on, it also uses less memory and ram.

I have it...not a big difference between the others that I've noticed.

It was actually a big system hog when I first installed it, but it works fine now.

It's been out a while, I have noticed a few subtle changes. My favorite is if I type something in the address bar that is part of one of my bookmarks, it comes up as a choice on like a drop down thing.

I hated that at first, but I have grown to love it. Also, Youtube stumble, stumble in general, IMDB search bar, Downloadthemall!, AdBlock Plus...all ftw.

Google Chrome for regular browsing, IE for school stuff... Firefox took way too much of my memory.

I hated the Smart Bar or whatever they call it.. I downloaded an extension that changed it back to the old style.
Did anyone run into any problems with the switch? I've heard of people losing bookmarks when they upgraded.

Foxmarks FTW. It is a great extension that lets you sync your bookmarks at any computer.

Going from 2 to 3 I lost all my bookmarks. I have heard from friends that their bookmarks transfered, but maybe it was just a bug that screwed me. I was pissed.

I use IE because it's the most compatible with my school's website.

Get foxmarks, save your bookmarks to that, then upgrade. Then sync your saved bookmarks to your firefox 3.0.
