Internet Browser Of Choice

Post by Boni »

I thought it was time I get this section buzzing again, first off a topic about the one thing that everyone of us use here at TNS where it be on your desktop/laptop computer or your mobile device is an internet browser. Gives us your thoughts. I'm planing on doing a little article describing the pros and cons on the major ones. These aren't all the web browsers. A lot more do exist and if your ones that use any then make a post and makes us all aware of it.

If it's speed the new Opera Beta outclasses them all. Sticking with Chrome the now though, I think the simplistic design.

You really couldn't be more wrong :P

Opera, Safari and Chrome all out rank Firefox :P

However, if you disable opera's ghey caching, then i think Safari is still faster.

Safari was released in 2003.

I use Google Chrome and it is way better than Firefox in my opinion. Best browser I've ever used.

INTERNET. EXPLORER.

jkiusefirefox/googlechrome.
And I know I said I needed space,

but I know I can't be comfortable in my own skin.

So when I say I'm scared to be alone, you know I mean it,

I'm just not ready to leave my room.

People use IE?!

I use Firefox. Didn't really like Chrome but I did try it, also AdBlock+ is on Firefox and Firefox has been around much longer so should technically be safer.
