yeah I've seen this but I don't see any "import as html" button in FF4

FF Button > Bookmarks > Import

I'm pretty stoked that they stole the Opera interface. That was why I switched to Opera - it sounds dumb but FF3 was really ugly in comparison. However, Opera fails to work with websites every so often, so I might switch back. Not sure what to do now. I love Opera but it's not without its problems.

I like the top interface less   It kind of reminds me of the Ribbon thing on Microsoft Office, when they hid all the options

You mean the orb.

I love the orb - hate the ribbon XD

Facebook lights up when there is a new notification - I assume that's based on the website title changing.

The same applies for gmail

what's the name of that gmail notifier Tazz? I've tried several but none are shown in the taskbar

I'm not using one.. I was simply noting that the app tab changes blue.

It's really quite sad that Mozilla have resorted to "borrowing" all the new ideas from other browsers because they have no imagination of their own.

Mozilla has reached it's peak with development. The stuff they've come up with over the last year has been pretty poor.

Actually - if you go into the betas of both opera and FF - FF did it first - Opera simply have a quicker release cycle - they're up to 11 now i think. There was a major shitstorm on g.

Did some more research - the firefox button was conceived in Sep 09

How did you do this? Is it by theme?

right click ---> pin as app tab

you know, for one of the only new features of FF4, no one seems to know about it

The app tab doesnt work very well.

If you create a few app tabs - then open a new window - the new window lacks the app tabs. - then close the window with the app tabs, then close your new window - open FF again - app tabs gone.
