- 24. Features Private Browsing Surf the Web without leaving a single trace.
- 25. Performance
- 26. Performance We’re constantly optimizing Firefox to be great for the way you use the web – things like making new tabs open up more quickly, or having the Awesome Bar provide results even faster. In the end, it’s about getting you where you need to go as quickly and easily as possible.
- 27. More Features
- 28. Features Awesome Bar Find the sites you love in seconds (and without having to remember clunky URLs).
- 29. Features Stay in Sync When you set up Firefox Sync on your computer , all of your data and preferences (such as your bookmarks, history, passwords, open tabs and installed add-ons) gets stored securely on the Mozilla servers. Then you can connect other devices (a mobile phone for example) and they will be automatically synchronized, giving you access to all of your information no matter where you are.
- 30. Features Offline Browsing Take your computer offline and still have your information at your fingertips. Certain sites may allow applications—like your Web-based email—to stay with you at all times.
- 31. Features Do Not track Me Most major websites track their visitors' behavior and then sell or provide that information to other companies (like advertisers). Firefox has a Do-not- track feature that lets you tell websites you don't want your browsing behavior tracked. When you turn on the Do-not-track feature, Firefox tells every website you visit (as well as their advertisers and other content providers) that you don't want your browsing behavior tracked
- 32. Features Switch To Tab As you’re opening a new tab or typing in the Awesome Bar, Firefox will check to see if you already have that site open. If you do, you’ll be directed to the existing tab so you don’t open a duplicate.
- 33. Features Tags Label a site with names or categories that are meaningful to you. For example, you can label both www.bbc.co.uk and www.nytimes.com with the “news” tag. When you enter “news” into the location bar, both sites will be shown as results. A single site can have multiple tags, and there’s no limit to the number of tags you can create. You may not remember the exact name of a site, but with a tag, you’ll be able to find it easily.
