It’s been a crazy few weeks in the browser world, with the introduction of Google Chrome browser extensions, and the fanfare surrounding them. Mozilla has taken a back seat to Google in the race to become the de-facto #2 in the race (behind Microsoft’s Internet Explorer), and so they’re trying to get back in the fight through the mobile product.

What can we expect from the Firefox mobile browser?

Mozilla want its users to have as close an experience to the desktop product as possible, and so they are trying to incorporate as many different options and settings as they can. This includes tabbed browsing (which up to this point has been sorely lacking in a vast number of mobile browsers, including RIM’s Blackberry software).

What will be similar about the mobile browser?

The tabs for the browser will be found on the left hand side of the screen, with easy access to a number of open pages. There has also been a promise from the Firefox development team that this will be fast software, and not a memory hog like some mobile addons and widgets can tend to be.

Look out for the Firefox mobile browser before the year is finished! That means within five days at the latest. Stay tuned for more browser news from RockNLoad in the future, including talk about the Google Chrome browser and its current war with Internet Explorer!
