Firefox 3 makes up world record to set world record

Location bar

Personally, I had to get the Fox3 from portable apps, as I can't live (or perhaps just use the interwebnets) without the new locationbar. Perhaps not awesome, but definitely great.

Now for the fun part: The shape that most resembles Scotland is above Ireland, having been pushed off by the giant square of Olympic games. Conspiracy, no doubt. o.o
