Mozilla developers have issued a major update to their Firefox Aurora build.

Firefox Aurora updated with SPDY, new tab page & home page

The latest version comes with their new tab page and a redesigned home page.

Firefox also now features URL auto-complete.

Mozilla said:

When you open a new tab, you will now see a customizable preview of your favorite sites. The previews are based on your Awesome Bar history and make it easy for you to navigate to your favorite and most visited sites in one click.

You can also manage and re-order your favorite sites by dragging the previews and locking them into place by clicking the pushpin on the top left of the site preview thumbnails.

The latest Firefox Aurora also includes a redesigned default home page. The new page provides a central location from where you can access your bookmarks, history, settings, downloads and restore previous sessions.

Changelog:

Awesome Bar Auto-Complete
Tabs on demand
Smooth scrolling
SPDY (on by default)
Developer tool improvements
