Mozilla striving for an awesome Web browser
The basic concept behind a Web browser is pretty simple -- to deliver and frame the online world. So how much better can a browser get, really? That's the question facing Mozilla and the worldwide community of developers responsible for its Firefox browser.
The first version, in 2004, took off based on its promise of better security and features such as tabbed browsing, for opening multiple pages inside a window.
With the release of Firefox 3.0 slated for next month, Mozilla's Mike Beltzner thinks they've come up with advances worthy of the same type of attention. He points, as an example, to a Firefox 3.0 feature known officially as the Smart Location Bar -- and informally as the Awesome Bar.
