Firefox 3.5 Available as Portable App

Just a note here that not only is Firefox 3.5 out, but the Portable Apps folks have already made it portable, so you can give it a try totally risk free:

For those of you who don't follow browser developments as closely as me (probably most of you!), 3.5 is supposed to be about twice as fast as 3.0.  That makes it way, way faster than IE7 (I won't mention IE6), considerably faster than IE8, and about as fast as the latest Chrome and Safari.  The pace of browser development right now is really astounding, and great for web developers like me.

Firefox had a cool marketing program to promote the speed improvements of 3.5.  If you haven't seen the videos, they're worth checking out:

Testimonials

  • Modern Signal has a professional staff that was very responsive to our needs during all phases - scoping, developing, implementing and maintaining - of our project.  We have been pleased with their ability to deliver quality work on time and on budget. If given the opportunity, I would work with them again.

    - Kirk Gillis, Managing Director at Zoom Tanzania

  • Modern Signal has been a great partner for us for over the past 10 years.  As our business grew and our needs changed, Modern Signal was able to work with us to adjust our website platform in the ever-changing online world.  Their service and response level has been second to none, and we've been never been happier with our relationship with them.

    - Charm City Run

  • Modern Signal worked with us to understand our needs and figure out what solution would work best for us. Our Lighthouse CMS is perfectly suited to our website goals. When we later needed to modify the CMS, they again took the time to understand exactly what was  needed and then built that functionality rather than delivering a cookie cutter solution.
