The problem with it is that hardly any of the extensions work with it

Like Roboform doesn't

Can't use it :blink:

I’m waiting for it to show up in my Ubuntu updates, but the inline spell checking looks very sexy! (Hopefully support for Canadian English is on the way.)

Yeah took me a while to get used to it, but its cool. reason being is I'm so used to clicking the right corner to close the opened tab, now I have to click the tab itself. But it actually makes more sense that way. You can easily close an unopened tab by simply clicking the x rather then right clicking.

One feature of firefox that I always forget of, thats pretty cool is that you can bookmark a whole tab set. Good for if your doing research or something you can bookmark all the common sites into a single bookmark.

Yeah that bookmark all tabs is awesome.
Hey who here uses the default graphic buttons and who uses the text buttons?
I use the text buttons, I don't like the graphic ones that much, but I think It would be cool to have something similar to IE7.

Canadian English Dictionary 1.0.1 by Paul Schmiedge

For some reason, Mozilla doesn't have a Canadian localization team, but I know that even the British dictionary doesn't quite cut it for the truly patriotic. This extension adds Canadian English to the spell check languages available under the latest Mozilla products.

CLICK :awesome:

Well-I broke down & I am using it as most of my extensions work--except my spell checker extensions

The built in spell checker SUCKS

You have to check one word at a time & if you're not close on the spelling, it won't even give you a word.

Although it seems a little faster--I don't see what's so great about it. :rolleyes:
