I USE FIREFOX

I have officially migrated my primary web browsing to FireFox. I am one of the old salts on the internet and was using mosiac when it was first released from UIUC, then I started using netscape from "Mosaic Communications Corporation" before they changed their name to netscape. I didn't care for them converting netscape to a commercial product so when Microsoft released IE and it started to become the browser of all browsers, I switched to IE. I thought Netscape was on crack when they developed mozilla.org and the first mozillas were still slow and bloated and IE browsed circles around them. But now, after resisting and resisting waiting for the next "new and improved IE" and having the IE7 beta BLOW UP on me, I decided to 'test' firefox. Well it's funny. One of the things that made netscape superior to mosaic was that it loaded pages so much faster and soon mosaic was no longer the browser of choice, netscape was (even if it was a commercial software program). Eventually IE loaded pages so much faster than Netscape and netscape was no longer the browser of choice. Now comes FireFox and Firefox is without question the fastest browser I've ever used and with the number of extensions available for it I have some great features that even IE7 doesn't have. So I guess we've gone full circle returning to an open source browser once again. Interesting this technology of ours…
