Telstra has revealed the addition of almost one million new mobile services in the six months to December 2011, but Sensis revenues plummeted 24 percent in 12 months.
The world's second most used Web browser is set to unleash the final build of its new version on Tuesday. Firefox 2.0, from the not for profit open source Mozilla Foundation, will be available for download from the Firefox website at getfirefox.com.
Users of the current version of the browser
Firefox 1.5 will find that not much has changed as far as the user
interface is concerned. There have been some improvements with the tabs
feature, such as enabling users to close and reopen individual tabs
more easily and a history list of previous tabs that have been opened.
Mozilla is also touting the anti-phishing security feature of Firefox 2.0,
which warns users in advance when they look like they might be visiting
a malicious web page. IE7, released last week, also has a similar feature.
Looking at the new Firefox and IE7 versions, the two browsers are now
much closer in functionality than previously. What's more, IE7 will be
pushed out to existing IE6 users with the next round of automatic
updates in November.
The question on the lips of many market watchers is whether Firefox can
continue to take market share off Microsoft's browser now that the gap
has been closed.
