I<\/b>n a move that is set to knock Google Chrome right off the top, Mozilla Firefox has upped the ante with a new massive update that is surely going to change the rules of the game in the days to come. <\/span><\/p>\n

What did it do? Well, for starters it doubled its speed and will use 30% less computer memory. Wait, there is more. Firefox has promised that the \u201cdoubled speed\u201d will be doubled again in 2018. <\/span><\/p>\n

That\u2019s just the tip of the iceberg. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Firefox\"<\/p>\n

If you had long forgotten this open-source browser, perhaps the time is ripe to give a spin again. The brand new browser of Firefox will be called Firefox Quantum. Many have termed its meteoric speed boost as the \u201cbig bang in browser history.\u201d <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The version 57 of Mozilla\u2019s browser<\/a> is faster than all the browsers available on the world wide web right now, including the revered Google Chrome<\/a>. But, there\u2019s MORE.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Firefox\"<\/p>\n

Mozilla has long been a giant killer, for instance, in 2004 it upstaged Microsoft\u2019s now infamous Internet Explorer browser which was slowly phased out by Microsoft <\/a>in lieu of Edge that hasn\u2019t quite lived up to its initial hype. <\/span><\/p>\n

In a market dominated by Google<\/a>, Firefox hopes to revive the race by beating Google Chrome on the speed front.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although Chrome is still the leader as 55% users today prefer using it compared with 15% of Apple\u2019s Safari<\/a> and only 6% users prefer Firefox. But, Firefox has reasons to be optimistic.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Firefox Quantum has been built and designed as a more private browser thus giving individuals a customized experience. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Firefox\"<\/p>\n

Firefox Quantum can do things such as allowing users to load parts of websites they want to see first and then ads trickle in based on lower priority. <\/span><\/p>\n

The browser also sports a new look with its tabs getting a makeover. Now, the tabs look like plain-vanilla rectangles that are easier to handle.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Firefox\"<\/p>\n

There is also a \u201cpage actions menu\u201d<\/strong> built into the address bar so that users won\u2019t have to open separate tabs for initiating searches. Not to mention, a handy new tool to take screenshots. <\/span><\/p>\n

There are many more changes and it seems Mozilla now hopes to counter Chrome\u2019s status as a performance based browser. <\/span>Right now, all we can do is wait and watch as the real game unfolds.<\/span><\/p>\n
