Mozilla has redesigned its official site to coincide with today’s release of Firefox 1.5. Improvements in this version include:
- faster navigation back and forth in a browser session
- improved software and extension updates
- drag and drop support for tabs (previously available via extensions)
- enhanced pop-up blocking
- more customization controls
- a bunch more I haven’t listed (full release notes here)
