FireFox 2.0 Beta 1 Key New FeaturesJuly 13th, 2006 The key new features of Firefox 2.0 beta (with brief commentary) are:
Integrated spell-checker - no more excuse for poor spelling in form data
Bookmarked web site summary - small updated headlines that sites can create that display in the bookmark sidebar in Firefox
Crashed session recovery - finally I can replace tab browser extension
Re-open recently closed tabs - this one is a life-saver
Anti-phishing warning popup - I hate popups but will let this one slide.
Search suggestion - live dropdown of suggested terms while searching
Tab close button on tabs - Personally I like ctrl-w better, a close button on every tab just makes it more crowded, not convenient
RSS feed preview - provides information on an RSS feed when the user is subscribing to it
