The long-awaited Alpha version of Firefox 2.0 has been released. To be honest, I’m not all that impressed. The only change I noticed when I tried it out earlier was that Live Bookmarks are now (annoyingly) automatically put in the toolbar (currently you get to choose where to put them). Some people are saying that the memory usage is down, but to be honest fixing bugs (memory leaks are bugs after all) doesn’t really justify a ‘major’ version number jump – you’d expect this to be done in Firefox 1.5.0.3, not Firefox 2.0. Bleh!
