oh look. trying to catch up to Chrome. not bad. only 6 months late with the speed dial and config start up page.
(edit: yes, speed dial came form Opera, chrome (and everyone else) stole that idea, blah blah blah, "Great Artists Steal" whatever. you know they took that updated homepage design form Chrome)

[FalseAgent]

you know they took that updated homepage design form Chrome

I wouldn't have it any other way, actually.

LOL, I really don't care who stole what, as long as the improvement is good.

Also Villain, it's from, not form.

I tried and for me about:home its pretty useless and ''speed dial '' have 0 settings unlike Opera's perfectly crafted.
I still prefer FF thought.

Chrome was the first browser who stole speed dial from Chrome.
