Firefox, Chrome ? Other ? Which browser do you think is best ?
I thankfully switched from internet explorer to Mozilla FIrefox shorly after it became available and have been very happy with it. Along comes this google chrome and I'm curious about it. Did some reading on the net but I'm not ready to change on my PC.
My droid razr just had a large update and it is asking if I want to continue with the existing browser or go with google chrome. So I'm posting this to maybe hear if anyone has any positive or negatives to share on the chrome browser, or any other they may be using.

I use both and of the two I feel that chrome is a bit faster. However if your a big fan of add on 's then you can't beat Mozilla

I like chrome. I not sure if it really is any faster, but it feels like it may be. I also like its cleaner appearance, though visual changes always take some time to get used to.

IE 9 is pretty good imo.
Good enough that I can't be bothered to switch to something else.
A browser is like a car imo. If it does what it is supposed to do without too much hassle, I don't really care about which one I use.Til shade is gone, til water is gone, Into the shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath.

I tend to use Safari the most, but have been using Chrome quite a bit too.
Firefox is too slow to start, and the appearance out of the box is not very pleasing...Bjoernar
Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me over all these years....

I have been using Chrome for ages now. I too like the clean look and feel of it. The one drawback (which can also be a positive) is that every tab and every extension runs as its own process. That's good as one tab or extension crashing won't kill the entire session, but it can be a bit of a resource hog if you like to have lots of tabs open.
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

I like safari. It has some very nice short cuts that you don't find on other browsers. My bookmarks I can press control 1 and it will take me to my first bookmark etc.
Also the reader function comes in handy a lot more than I ever thought I would.
Not as fast as chrome. But I hate google with a passion. But considering I have very fast Internet it doesn't matter that much.
I do very rarely use windows though. I am a Mac guy

Depending on which family or work computer I handle, I use IE, Firefox, or Chrome. I have been using Firefox for years and prefer it over IE. I prefer Chrome over IE too.
I can't use Firefox on my work PC, so I use IE and Chrome. IE is required for the work intranet. Chrome is for personal use.
On my home PC I use Firefox. Chrome is faster than Firefox on some sites, but not all. I also like using add-ons, so Firefox wins on that.
I use Firefox on my smartphone. Anything is better than the phone's default web browser. I also like how I can synchronize the Firefox bookmarks my home PC with Firefox on my smartphone.You can take the boy out of NY, but you can't take NY out of the boy.
