Firefox 8 comes in only one and half months after Firefox 7 being inline with Mozilla’s new rapid release strategy, under which we can expect a new roll out of Firefox every 6 weeks.
Firefox 8 is scheduled to be released on Tuesday, November 8th. If you upgrading sooner via FTP server, please be sure to read updates on Firefox 8 compatibility here.
The biggest new feature is that Firefox itself now handles third party add-on installations to avoid security problems. Load tabs on demand at start up. Also included in the support to search Twitter messages in the browser’s address bar.
Windows, Mac and Linux flavors are available.
