Firefox 2.0.0.8 released

I wonder why I have to post about every new update to Firefox. Maybe I’m just lazy.

Oh well, in case you haven’t done so already, stop using Internet Explorer, start using Firefox today! Go get the latest version (2.0.0.8) at http://www.getfirefox.com/.

Do try out the excellent addons as well. My favourite is Ad Block Plus. FoxMarks seems useful. And FireBug is awesome if you are developer working with browser based apps.

Try using some of the keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+T for new tab, Ctrl+W for closing a tab and Ctrl+Shift+T for reopening the last closed window. They are real time savers!

Update : Seems like 2.0.0.8 was a major update and caused some regression problems which have been fixed with 2.0.0.9 which came along rather quickly.
