Browser Wars

Thursday, July 23, 2009

A good browser isn't hard to find. There are so many to choose from. The top four are Firefox, Safari, Google Chrome and IE. If your still using IE I feel sorry for you. In comparison to every other browser out there IE is a dinosaur. Forget about the constant crashes, numerous bugs and the fact that it leaves a gapping hole in your computer for viruses to come right in. It lacks so many features and benefits provided by almost all it's competitors.

First off there is Firefox. Firefox is an awesome browser. It's very user friendly, very secure, has fast load times and it's FREE. You can also add plugins to customize it and make it perfect for everyone.

Second is my favorite, Safari. Apple's browser is just and user friendly as Firefox, it has equal load times and it's just as secure. The main difference between the two is that Safari isn't as customizable. However, PimpMySafari.com does have some really neat plugins for it.

Third is Google's Chrome. Yes Google has a web browser. It uses the same framework as Safari, Webkit, and has many of the features shared by Firefox and Safari. Google Chrome is also fast, user friendly and secure. However, it's also not as customizable as Firefox and it doesn't work on the Mac.

Last is Microsoft's IE. Microsoft's browser lacks in every sense of the word. It's simply pathetic. They're make making many improvements with IE8, but I still wouldn't use it unless you had to.

The bottom line is don't use IE. You can't go wrong using Firefox, Safari or Google Chrome. So what are you waiting for? Start using a better web browser ASAP.
