Which Browser Do You Use? & Why?

Z71kris · January 11, 2009

I have been using Chrome since it came out, and it has gotten better since then. It pretty fast, pretty close to Firefox, and blows away IE. Just curious.

I use Firefox on my Macs and IE on my Windows boxes and Parallels install.

I like Firefox better than IE for about a bajillion reasons but I need IE to interact with and administer Sharepoint effectively.

Firefox

I only use IE when I "have" to, to test something at work, to interact with an M$ site that doesn't work right with FF, etc... The other 99.999% of the time, I use Firefox.

EDIT : Finally noticed Brian-style spelling errors and fixed them...

Same here.

Firefox at home and at work. At work when I have to access something IE specific, I use the IE Tab extension in Firefox. ...flawless...

FF & Only FF

I use all three. Never had an IE issue on any of my systems. Even the 40 plus PCs on my office network do fine with IE. I do like Firefox and Chrome is coming along as well.

IE and IE only. Do not permit the installation of Firefox or any foreign browser. I have enough headaches as it is and IE blows them all away with a little tweaking and besides it runs a lot better on the intranetwork and allows you to write robust .net apps without worrying about having to worry about capabilities. I maintain over 3000+ PCs and do not need anymore headaches from foreign software.

I use IE7. I've been thinking about trying IE8, but I haven't got around to downloading/upgrading it yet.

I am surprised that only two of us have used Chrome. The ones who need the IE compatibility I can see, but for the average user it works great, a lot better then when it came out. I have only used the older Firefox and did not care for then, I have been thinking of trying the newest version, but I am pretty happy with the way Chrome is coming along.

I use Safari...

I picked Chrome only. I do use IE, but only when forced to as Chrome still has problems with a site every now and then and of course, the MS sites that won't let you use anything other than IE. I tried FF and Opera, they just didn't do it for me. But so far I love Chrome.
