Good ol Firefox
11th of February, 2006Thank god for firefox. I decided to make a few changes to my style sheet today when I inadvertently uploaded an older version of my CSS file over top of my only good version.
I was saved when I got home by firefox as I had my web browser open on my blog. "Edit CSS". HAHA! Success.
There are many other reasons as to why firefox is so much better than it's nemesis, Internet Explorer, however I'm only going to touch on the top 5 reasons:
- Extensions
If you can think of something you would like to have supported in your most used application, its more than likely been developed and ready for you to install on top of your browser. - Tab Browsing
Ever had 20 different windows open while viewing several different web pages at once? In firefox, tabs replace these windows with a user friendly tool bar just waiting for you to click over to another page. - Security
This is a debatable one as firefox has only just reached the 20% mark of the browser market share. Firefox security patches are released quicker than IE security patches that sometimes been known to take up to six months to be released, and then don't patch anything anyway. - Size and Speed
Firefox is less than 10MB, IE is over 100. I wonder what unnecessarily crap Microsoft has bundled into their shitty featureless browser. Nuff said. - Standalone HTTP Client
This is a big one, firebox doesn't need to use Windows APIs to function, which means when it crashes (and it does) it doesn't take your operating system with it. This is good for security as well, why would you want to use an application that could have access to your operating system?
If your not a caveman or a complete idiot, download firefox now you fuck!
