After spending a bit of time with Firefox 3, I have been satisfied overall. It is worth using, but all I really wanted to say here is a few of the bad things I have noticed with FF3.
The biggest problem I have had is the random occasion that when I open the browser it shows me a blank white page with nothing in the address bar, neither anything in history or bookmarks. This seems to persist until a day or two later when it decides to come back. I have never heard of anyone having this problem before, so I just switch back to old IE7 when the bug strikes.
Any other problems are minor at worst, so you might as well ignore the rest of this post. First of all, I do not understand how the upper right corner search bar works. When you go to manage search engines, it shows you your list and shows you an attractive link that says "Get more search engines..." but when you click that, they give you a list of a measly 23 engines to choose from. Sometimes it lets you add the search engine of the site you are on, but not always. I wasn't able to add Google images search. One more small annoyance is that the Bookmarks dropdown menu automatically hogs 8 lines and 4 dividers on the top with buttons you don't really need, so it often forces you to scroll down to be able to see all your bookmarked pages.
If I you have any solutions to these problems, please leave a comment, it would be appreciated. Anyway, see you for now, I will try to start posting regularly again.
