Firefox & Google Chrome It’s not much of a happy news for Firefox fans that Mozilla has decided to remove atleast one (or more) of the promised features from the final version of Firefox 4 scheduled to be released by the end of this year.

Mozilla developers said that in order to meet the deadline, some features planned for Firefox 4 need to be removed. These features include the new account manager which was introduced in April this year, the Inspector, the web-console and some misc features for the Windows platform. However, things may change by a few degrees here or there as the final feature freeze is due next week, September 10 to be precise.

On a happier note, Google Chrome turned 2 today and for a browser that young, it’s ground breaking to evolve to a 17% foot print in market share [Aug 2010]. Moreover, Google released version 6 of the browser today with security fixes and performance boosts. Download Google Chrome 6 now!
