Well since it's pretty much just FireFox with a "Flock" twist .... uhmm just stick with FireFox?, I want to see what FireFox 1.5 has in store for us once it's available.

I'd love FireFox 1.5 to have Opera's Zoom capabilities so that I can stop switching from one browser to the next. I like NN 8.0 as well but again missing the Opera Zoom.

Why am I all GaGa for ZoomZoom? Well think about it this way ... with the Opera Zoom you are zooming into the complete layout, not just increasing font size as all other browsers are.

Yeah, I don't think I'm even going to consider adding another browser to my list, or at least not until it reaches NN or FF popularity. Right now I have enough "FUN" optimizing for 10 versions of browsers .... 10 is quite enough right now :P

LIFT OUT :D

It tells you its based of firefox guess you never read that, lets see you make one go grab the code and start building. :doh:

Its quite a neat browser if you take a good look.

Its really quick in loading pages etc(quicker than firefox in fact) but there's still a whole lot of work left to do and I won't rush into making it my default browser any time soon, especially because I have to restart the browser every 30 minutes or so, so that it doesn't end up using 200MB of memory. Weirdly enough, only some people have reported about the memory leak problem and ppl noticed it only after I posted about this problem in the mailing list :doh:
