The latest version of Firefox is a solid upgrade, adding performance improvements, geolocation, better tab-handling, and a new privacy mode to help keep your addiction to Cute Overload a secret. Take a look at this video, where we put Firefox 3.5 through its paces.Firefox 3.5 uses the new TraceMonkey JavaScript rendering engine, to make Web apps like Gmail and Google Maps run faster.

New tab management lets you rip off tabs and place them on the desktop. And I like a couple of the usability tricks in the browser's implementation of privacy mode-aka "porn mode."
Watch the video and see for yourself.
