It took us years and years and years to reach Firefox version 4 but with only a few months passing since its most awaited release we already find ourselves ready to download version 6.

By the time you read this the long awaited final release of Firefox 4 should have finally happened. In fact the release softly started today with keen eyed techies spying download links to the latest browser that originally was scheduled for a November 2011 launch.
So what’s changed? Well the first thing you’ll notice is a brand new look. The interface has been completely re-written to give you more screen real estate but if you grabbed last weeks release of Internet Explorer 9 you’ll notice that it and Firefox 4 look a heck of a lot like Google Chrome. I think it’s going to take some time to get used to it but I do like the features such as revealing the old school menus if you need them just by hitting the ALT key. But if you’re a fan of the old look you can restore this in the settings.
The one bill I never mind paying is my broadband. Cut off my water but never take away my ability to watch videos of people falling off things. But I do want value for money and a good service and now I can find out if that’s what I’m getting. If you pop over to SamKnows.com they will test your ISP and send you a monthly report so you can monitor if you’re getting close to what you’re paying for. Simply fill in a short form with your ISP’s details and your advertised speed and that’s it. You have the power!
