Mozilla has released Firefox v13 last month with features that bring it more in line with its contemporaries. At the front-end, Mozilla has redesigned the default home page (start page) to include shortcuts common tasks such as browser settings, syncing, and bookmarks. The New Tab window now opens up with shortcuts to recently or most frequently visited website, much like Opera’s Speed Dial.
The most significant update at the back-end is the use to Google’s SPDY protocol that was introduced in the previous Firefox releases, but it was disabled by default. SPDY is Google’s attempt at improving on HTTP in security and speed, and it has been gradually gaining popularity with Twitter being the larger and more recent operation to serve web-pages over SPDY. Firefox 13 release adds some features for web developers, fixes bugs, introduces tweaks and adds support for Khmer language.
