What Firefox really needs

Firefox has been lying to you. They keep increasing their version numbers… but nothing is happening. The main selling point for Firefox 3 is “it’s fast… just like we used to be”. Here’s a table:

Marketing hype Actual version
Firefox 0.9 Firefox 0.9
Firefox 1 Firefox 1
Firefox 1.5 Firefox 1.1
Firefox 2.0 Firefox 1.2
Firefox 3.0 Firefox 0.9
Firefox 4.0 Firefox 2.0 (hopefully)

Firefox is not worthy of going past the 1.x version until there is innovation. I submit that this is the feature that will mark the beginning of the 2.0 browser era:

Firefox 3
