Browser Preference?

Firefox is related to Netscape and now Google, so, umm, well, ummm, what should I download instead? If that's the church and that's the state I'm effed.

Well, that should be enough reason for anyone... :) Jokes aside... I tried Opera some time ago (like 2 years ago, I believe). Didn't like it. Besides it had lots of ads. After Opera I tried Firefox and liked it. It has this cool features that at the time neither IE nor Opera had, such as the tabs window. But that was a while ago, I know. Maybe Opera is better now (from my point of view). But I don't really feel like changing. I'm really used to FF and have no reason at all to switch. Well, I tried to when IE7 was released (I even tried the betas X|), but no thanks. Perhaps, if one day my dogmatic point of view about the topic becomes a little more flexible, I'll try Opera again.

Opera's been ad free for over a year now. Opera was tabbed a year (2000) before Mozilla (2001) was. Opera's tabbed UI is also better IMO than FFs. FF uses a straitup tab control, O uses a tab strip to select between MDI child windows. This lets you do side by side comparisons between tabs by unmaximizing the tabs instead of having to copy one into a new top level instance first. It also handles popups more naturally as unmaximized child windows.. FF either has them as separate top level windows or in tabs but forcibly maximized.
