What strikes me about this video is not that the default position for tabs in Firefox 4 will be at the top of the browser (a decision I like a lot, by the way; I'll start using the toolbars I like more often, since the tabs won't get lost in the toolbars). Instead, what strikes me is that Mozilla is not only open about how they came to the decision (and how to change the default setting), they go very in-depth into the decision-making process.
That's awesome.

For my purposes, what I now don’t have is an immediate way to see what’s in the title tag area. I’ll have to open the source code to see what a website thinks it’s all about. At least that’s what it looks like on Opera with the tabs at the top, which is why I prefer Firefox instead.
I’m glad they’re making it an option rather than a demand; that’s the best way of presenting new things in my opinion.
