Firefox 11 Aurora: The Future of Firefox

[Update 2012-3-14] Mozilla released the stable version of Firefox 11 today. As of now, Aurora will be the upcoming Firefox 12.

Since the Mozilla Foundation got 300 Million US$ per year from Google to implement Google's search engine as the default one, two new releases of the Firefox Browser have been presented: Firefox 10 (stable) and Firefox 11 Aurora (Version 11). The mobile Android version of the Android implementation gets a new, native UI. That makes the browser faster and it needs less memory besides other improvements and fixes. Firefox Aurora and Beta can be downloaded from Future of Firefox.
