Which Web Browser Do You Use?

June 25, 2007

I can honestly say I've been around the web browser block a few too many times. I've used just about everything, including Safari, Internet Explorer, Netscape and now predominately Firefox, which I absolutely love...most of the time. Back in the day early web browsers only supported simple versions of HTML (Netscape for example), whereas now they have become very sophisticated and user-friendly. Since I post a lot of downloads and applications for various browsers, it would be great to know what browser you use to surf the net. Leave your comments below and tell us why you love your browser.

I have to say, that I love Firefox, but have become a recent convert to Flock at home. I love the home page that lists all your favorites sites and feeds on one page for easy viewing. I also like the integration with Twitter, but I wish it integrated better with Google. I'd like to be able to manage my Picasa account directly from there. I still prefer it to Flickr. Plus Flock renders like Firefox since it's based on Mozilla.

I love Safari, so I primarly use it. But sometimes website don't work on Safari so I'm glad I have Firefox.

Internet Explorer! I used to use Firefox all the time but now I can open new tabs on internet explorer so I'm back to using that.

My boyfriend had a mac before I did, and I liked the way he had his bookmarks toolbar on Safari, so I got Firefox for my PC, thinking it was the next best thing. When I got my mac, I started to use Safari and greatly missed all of the great things about Firefox. now I use ff all the time unless I need to run a special website on safari

Opera all the way! I was a devoted FireFox user for over a year before I discovered Opera. Now I won't go back! It's brilliant and does everything I could ever want. I just wish that more people would promote it. It's so nifty. You can even download Opera mini to your handheld PC or phone and have all the function and capability on the go. My favorite part is the mouse gestures. Just a movement of the mouse can let you do whatever you need. The newest version even has a 'speed dial' so your favorite websites are just a number away. Ooh! Plus! It has an AWESOME feature that detects when something is in a series (like clicking 'next' in a gallery of pictures) and allows you to just hold the left mouse button and then right-click to move forward. Just hold the right and then left-click to move back. Gosh, I sound like an excited kid. I LOVE OPERA! Why are you still reading this?! GO GET OPERA <3

I had Firefox on my old computer and the program made it crash all the time...and even though I have a much better computer now, I haven't bothered to switch back. Internet Explorer does what I need it to do, and I haven't seen a pop-up in ages.

Firefox. I tried it some time ago when IE would do nothing but crash and I haven't looked back. I don't know how I survied for so long without it. I <3 my Firefox.

Opera!! And the only reason it has such a small share of users is because it is never mentioned in articles like this! It came out before FireFox and does everything FireFox does plus more. It is free as well! It is also easier to customize and doesn't involve searching to find useful features (i.e. FF's add-ons). If you like efficient searching with tabs and are sick of FF hogging all the memory - please try Opera. http://www.opera.com

Safari has bugs on localised windows, not when you are using English one. I am not using any Windoze computer so that would mean I use Safari all the way. But when I need to upload some text to my web site I must use FF because of the special characters such as čćžđš... I wonder if you guys see this characters now cause I am typing with safari :D

Firefox is superior to IE. If I'm on my Mac I use Safari, though.

I use Opera, but also Firefox and Safari. I can't stand Internet Explorer, but I can deal with Netscape (they had it in our elementary school when I was younger, so I'm very familiar with it).

I use both Camino and Safari, but these days almost always Camino.

Netscape is heck of old school. I used that shit when I was in 6th grade.
