A new preview version of the Firefox browser is out (1.5 Beta 1). This new version seem faster then 1.06 and I really like being able to move the tabs! However not all extensions are compatable yet.

Here’s what’s new in Firefox 1.5 Beta 1:

• Automated update to streamline product upgrades.
• Faster browser navigation with improvements to back and forward button performance.
• Drag and drop reordering for browser tabs.
• Improvements to popup blocking.
• Clear Private Data feature
• Answers.com is added to the search engine list.
• Improvements to product usability including descriptive error pages, redesigned options menu, RSS discovery, and “Safe Mode” experience.
• Better accessibility
• Report a broken Web site wizard
• Better support for Mac OS X
• New support for Web Standards including SVG, CSS 2 and CSS 3, and JavaScript 1.6.
• Many security enhancements.
