Today Skyfire announced the latest beta build (0.9) of their popular mobile browser for Windows Mobile and S60 platforms.

This beta build includes a lot of new social aspects including the native integration of both Facebook and Twitter feeds.

Users with Facebook and Twitter accounts can import their news feeds and Twitter streams into Skyfire and easily publish their status to these networks. Users can also share and publish any web page to their Facebook and Twitter streams by simply going to the share menu in the Skyfire browser.

I’ve been playing with this latest build for the past few days and I have to say, I’m really impressed! I’m a huge fan of both Facebook and Twitter and Skyfire 0.9’s “real-time activity wall” (feed aggregator) is awesome. I’m also impressed by many other improvements as well, such as less required scrolling, better text rendering, and of course Skyfire remains my top mobile browser pick for its ability to support Flash Web pages, video, and its speedy load time.

Head on over to Skyfire’s site to download the newest build for FREE and check it out for yourself! Skyfire suggests that users uninstall any previous versions of Skyfire that they may be running on their phones before installing the 0.9 beta.
