A Look at Firefox 3

So far, the test versions of the new Firefox alpha version 3.0 have been pretty boring. You are welcome to try it out, but you won't find much new...yet.  But boring is only skin deep when it comes to this third alpha version. A revolution sits inside: It's the first browser that will enable true off-line execution of Web services.

What does that mean to you? Well, you'll be able to run applications like Google's word processor and spreadsheet, or QuickBase, or most other Web-only applications right on your PC, Mac, or Linux computer without being connected to the net. There's much more, too, including synchronization, faster performance, and better use of memory. If you would like to read more about the upcoming new Firefox and the amazing things happening under its hood, check out the extensive story on the PC Magazine Website.
