SPDY is a transport protocol designed as a successor to HTTP that reduces the amount of time it takes for websites to load. This improves page load times and reduces server load because headers are compressed and fewer connections are used. All pages are loaded on SSL with SPDY, making browsing more secure. To enable SPDY, go to about:config. Search for network.http.spdy.enabled and set it to \u201ctrue.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What\u2019s New in Firefox Beta for Users:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Add-on Sync: Users have the option to sync add-ons across platforms so they can pick up where they left off on different computers. Users can enable this feature in the Preferences window on the Sync tab.<\/li>\n<li>Migration Tool Update: New Firefox users can utilize the migration tool to bring data from Internet Explorer, Safari and now Chrome. This Firefox Beta update adds the ability to import data and preferences from Google Chrome so users can easily get started on Firefox with all of their favorite bookmarks, history, cookies and profiles.
