The Fastest Firefox

The Fastest Firefox Yet
Things move quickly online, and we’ve beefed up the engine that runs Firefox to make sure you can keep up: Firefox 3.5 is more than twice as fast as Firefox 3, and ten times as fast as Firefox 2.* As a result, Web applications like email, photo sites and your favorite social networks will feel snappier and more responsive.

Web Developer Features
Open Video and Audio
Online media gets a major upgrade with Firefox 3.5. It includes the world’s first implementation of HTML 5 audio and video support (Ogg Vorbis and Ogg Theora), allowing web developers to include rich media that’s controlled using JavaScript, HTML and CSS instead of by proprietary technologies.

XHR
Firefox 3.5 supports cross-site XMLHttpRequests, which means your Web applications can now access material from other servers (as long as the servers are configured to allow it), thus paving the way for new mashups and other online collaborations.
Location-aware Browsing
In Firefox 3.5, users can share their location with requesting websites, allowing developers to customize their applications so they deliver more useful, more relevant output.
