What’s in store for Firefox 3.1

Ctrl Tab
Sure, Mozilla is preparing to release the final version of Firefox 3.0 next week. But that doesn’t mean the development team is going to take a break anytime soon. You can take an early look at some of the features that will be included in the next version of Firefox. Here are a few of the things planned for Firefox 3.1:

A new visual tab switching feature will work like the Alt Tab switching feature in Windows Vista (in other words, you can see thumbnails of open tabs). If you want to check out this feature before it’s officially added to Firefox, you can download the Ctrl Tab extension for Firefox 3.0 now.
Download history will be added to Places.
Support for bulk bookmark tagging and tag autocompletion

Firefox 3.1 alpha is scheduled for a mid-July release.
