What gym do YOU go to?! “Lift…and…click! Lift…and…click!” Don’t push yourself too hard. 😉

I like Firefox 3 so far. It is pretty snappy, and the UI tweaks make sense to me. And I like the egg carton graphic on their website where they explain what they mean by “organic software.” 😀
June 21, 2008 at 4:36 pm #170143DavidParticipantI actually really like that address bar. I don’t use bookmarks, but it’s really cool to be able to find an article I read in the past week or so by typing like “nytimes jetblue” or something.
And the new security widget is pretty nice too.
June 21, 2008 at 6:23 pm #170159VvWolverinevVParticipantDavid, what are you referring to when you say “security widget”?

It’s actually a “Site Identification Button”
I just like that its really big and green when I’m on say, the Bank of America website. It’s a little bolder than just the color of the address bar, and it does provide some more information too.
June 21, 2008 at 9:39 pm #170150AwesomeSauceParticipantI’m really starting to like the new address bar (a la “Autosuggest”). Very convenient for jumping to previously-visited addresses.
David;230910 wrote:It’s actually a “Site Identification Button”I appreciate you pointing out this nice feature, otherwise it never would have gone across my radar. I like having that sense of security when logging onto Wells Fargo Bank or PayPal.
Edit: As I was writing this post, Firefox suddenly had an “Unexpected error”, which then forced me to exit. Fortunately I was able restore my session, including my forum reply. Wow, is this a good thing or a bad thing? They kind of cancel each other out. I’m gonna say it’s the latter, because obviously it shouldn’t have crashed in the first place.
