[mike c]

i want to dump maxthon because it's extremely buggy, but i like the super drag and drop too much

i use FF for my static windows like facebook, yahoomail

They can't. It's the heart of the OS.

In the words of Bugs Bunny, "Ironic, ain't it?".

I really like Chrome. I like it's simplicity, and speed.

I also like "incognito" mode (press Ctrl+Shift+N to launch a new window in "incognito").... great for surfing Audioholics at work without it showing up in the history. Software history anyways, it won't do anything if they watch your traffic through the switch or something. But....it at least keeps Audioholics from being the first click when the browser loads haha.

I installed Google Chrome today because of this thread, thanks! I got sick of IE crashing all the time. So far so good...I'm impressed!

Back in the day of OS 8 and 9 land I used Opera. It was the fastest mac browser at the time. Man I hated OS 9 it was the worse OS apple ever made.

I'm sick of Firefox crashing, even though I keep it updated. My only complaint with Chrome is that there isn't an extension to block ads. Or is there? It's the major thing I really like about Firefox.

cheers,

There are all sorts of extensions for Chrome, I am sold on it.

I have been using Chrome since this thread started just to force myself to use it. It is a darn good browser on the mac. I would not say it is better than safari but equally as good. It does have some features safari doesn't but the reverse is true too so it is a wash.

One thing I really love about safari is the cover flow view of history.

Yes, there are ad blockers for Chrome, no good ones like FF Adblock, but they do the job.

[jwenthold99]

they do have Adblock which I use... and it seems similar to what they had on FF

 

[jeffsg4mac]

I just put adblock in and then promptly removed it. It was locking up the browser for a few seconds. Very annoying.
