Another quick update for this evening.
If you are running the Firefox 4 Beta on your computer you might like to bump the update checker inside the browser to download the latest Beta 9 offering which has been made available in the last couple of days.
If you want to view the complete list of changes in this release you can check out the release notes here. Some of the highlights of this release are:
- a range of further performance improvements including:
- improvements in bookmark and history code,
- improvements to the JägerMonkey JavaScript engine,
- component garbage collection,
- increased use of hardware acceleration.
- native support for the WebM format currently being spruiked by Google as an open source and royalty-free alternative to H.264.
As always, with any software in beta you should take care in running it on your system as there may be critical bugs or incompatibilities that may cause problems. With that in mind, check out the update and let me know your thoughts!

My name is Boyd and I’m a Service Management Specialist with a knack for operational data gathering, transformation, analysis and reporting.
In 2012, I obtained my Masters of Science in Information Technology through the University of New South Wales @ The Australia Defence Force Academy (UNSW@ADFA).
I was also part of an online community known as the Panasonic Insider Crew in the capacity of “Insider Guru” for Panasonic Australia where I interacted with other tech enthusiasts and find out more about Panasonic's latest gadgets.
I love technology, gadgets, and the Internet and maintain a keen interest in these areas locally, nationally, and globally. I hope by sharing my views on these topics that people will receive an honest point of view from someone with a genuine interest in these topics.
I have also written and edited articles for Neowin - you can check out my articles over @ https://www.neowin.net/news/poster/boyd_chan
