Firefox 1.0 has been released! Finally, after so long, the final wait is over. So go get Firefox now.

Great things about the new version:

  1. Numerous bug fixes
  2. The view source window now uses the search toolbar
  3. Built in options for forcing external links into a new tab (Kudos to the author of the Tabbedbrowser Preferences plugin for doing it 1st)

Not so great:

  1. Copy as plain text plugin doesn’t work with this version
  2. Ditto Firesomething
  3. Edit CSS plugin doesn’t work either.

Plugins will soon be updated, I imagine.
