Love Firefox 3, hate the awesome bar

Jun 18, 2008- Permalink

I downloaded Firefox 3 and though I love the browser, I have to add my voice to the chorus of people who don’t like the new format for the location or “awesome” bar. I hate the awesome bar: the awesome bar sucks. There, I said it.

When I type “c” in the location bar, I expect to see cnn.com or cinematical.com. The new “awesome bar” grabs a list of every bookmark and history entry that has a “c” in it.

Adding insult to injury, there’s no way to turn this off.

Ugh!
