Chrome is my main, Firefox is my secondary, gotta use all 3 to check work. I used to use chrome as my main because it loads alot faster, provides for more screen space and just seems overall to be a more intuitive browser. I especially like dragging a tab out to make a new window.
1. Chrome (load faster, there are plugins & extension but never try) 2. Firefox (have lot of addons and claim most secure) 3. IE (use when the other two not compatible with certain website)
I use firefox and chrome. Internet explorer when I have to but it's just so buggy and annoying Firefox rules out of all them
I didn't like Chrome at all. It crashed like 20 times a day for me. I still prefer to use IE. I am using IE for past 6 years and haven't had any problems with that. I also like Firefox and use at as my secondary Browser.
The only reason you haven't had any problems is due to the hard, struggling work of web developers writing code to make that turd of a browser work correctly for you. If you and others like you would stop using that crap, the whole internet would run faster, smoother and make everyone's job easier.
I don't know what your problem is if IE works perfect for me or I don't see any reason to work on Ubuntu. You seems like one of the linux or Mac fan always criticizing Microsoft no matter what.
i am using chrome, mozilla firefox & IE7 mozilla firefox is better than chrome... if chrome crash, you must opening your latest page manually..
Firefox has a lot of nice addons that can save a website developer or programmer time. A few of them slow ff down, but you just disable it or turn it off when not using it to work on a site. Firebug addon alone has reduced my time spent working on a website related project so much I couldn't even put a number on it. Rather than viewing the source code or going through each line of code to find what I need to edit or change, a couple of clicks with firebug and boom I have it in a few seconds. If the other browsers had more addons I would probably use them more. I just use ie to make sure a site displays decent for both ff and ie users, since the majority of my traffic are using these two browsers.
What does Ubuntu have to do with anything? My point is, you seem to think all is well with IE just because it works for you but that means you are oblivious to the hard work of the developers who have to force feed IE to make it do simple things that all other browsers have handled naturally for years. IE is the reason you can't use XHTML or SVG graphics and why PNG took so long to come about. IE is the reason everyone struggles so trying to get modern code to work on the web. IE is the cause of almost all the problems with the web today. YOU don't see the problem because you don't develop for the web and know nothing about that side of it while those of us who do may spend up to 50% additional time getting perfectly good code to work in IE (while it worked perfectly well in all other browsers). That's 50% more time and money customers have to pay us to create their web pages (and which, indirectly, will get charged back to you, the customer). If IE disappeared today, no web developer would shed a tear.
I love Chrome - it's so fast, elegant, and intuitive - I love that one-box-does-everything aspect to it. But I have to go back to Firefox for all the plugins, and I check my work in all the big three.
