Supposed to take care of the massive memory leaks associated earlier builds. Supposed to be a bit faster than earlier builds too.

Re: Firefox v3.6 Available
Just installed it here... looks faster and I hope it uses less memory.
Here are some of the best features new to Firefox 3.6:
* Personas: Personalize the look of your Firefox by selecting new themes called Personas in a single click and without a restart
* Plugin Updater: To keep you safe from potential security vulnerabilities, Firefox will now detect out of date plugins
* Stability improvements: Firefox 3.6 significantly decreased crashes caused by third party software – all without sacrificing our extensibility in any way
* Form Complete: When filling out an online form, Firefox suggests information for fields based on your common answers in similar field
* Performance: Improved JavaScript performance, overall browser responsiveness, and startup time
* Open Video and Audio: With the world’s best implementation of HTML 5 audio and video support, now video can be displayed full screen and supports poster frames
There’s also a lot of cool stuff for developers:
* Support for the latest HTML5 specification, including the File API for local file handling
* Font Support: In addition to OpenType and TrueType fonts, 3.6 now supports the new Web Open Font Format (WOFF)
* CSS gradients: Supports linear and radial CSS gradients which allow for a smoother transition between colors
* Device orientation: Firefox 3.6 exposes the orientation of the laptop or device to Web pages

Re: Firefox v3.6 Available
It might be the next good release to use. Got to hold off for the addons to mature.

My Photoshop skills end at removing red eye (when it works properly), removing backgrounds, and other simple editing. The creative side is completely lost to me.
