While the work on the next version of Firefox, Firefox 3.5 is still going on, some developers are already showing some features of the following version, Firefox 3.6 codenamed “Namoroka”. You can download the nightly build at Mozilla’s website, but please be reminded that it’s a pre-alpha version and should be used only for testing purposes:

Major new features:

  • Support for private browsing (Firefox won’t store any information like history, cache, cookies, … on your computer when private browsing is enabled)
  • Better browser cleaning (e.g. for cookies or history, you can now select time intervals)
  • Tab previews when moving tabs inside the tab bar or from one Firefox window  to another
  • Changing tabs with CTRL + TAB will create a half-transparent window showing previews of all tabs and allows the user to search the tabs
