I'm not sure why, but text is much crisper and clearer in google. I thought maybe I was just seeing things but when I open the same page in both Firefox and Google and leave them open next to each other, it is very noticeable. How can I increase the resolution in Firefox?

You can enable ClearType system wide for all programs to make other programs like Firefox use it.
