This Linux version was released with the help of open source community. More than 50 open source contributors have worked on Chromium project.

Firefox 3.6 is out! Plus: Personas Theme

The Mozilla has released the new version of their web browser “Firefox 3.6” last January 21st, 2010. Firefox 3.6 is built on Mozilla's Gecko 1.9.2 web rendering platform, and contains many improvements for web developers, add-on developers, and users. This version is also faster and more responsive that previousversions and has been optimized to run on small device operating system such as Maemo.

One that I love with the new version of Firefox is the theme called Personas, which allow users to change Firefox's appearance with a single click.
