    Chrome Vs Firefox...

    What do you guys prefer?

    I've been a religious Firefox user for years now..... thinking of giving Chrome a try "just because". Any reviews? Things you guys like/dislike?

    I use chrome primarily.. but I do have to use both IE and firefox to verity they all display webpages correctly as I'm building sites.

    Mostly I like the speed and lack of clutter.

    I'm a google chrome person myself. Only thing I don't like about it is when I find pictures a like (JEEP PICTURES!!) It's a bit of a process to pull them off the net and toss them in a file. I can't just copy and paste, lol. I have to right click, and save image as. Then I gotta dig the folder up find the file and move it to the right location.

    I've used every browser out there and IMO chrome is the cleanest and the fastest browser I have used. Firefox is I would say is a close second IE would be dead last even on the fastest computer that browser is garbage. Everyone do your self a favor down load Chrome and just give it a try. AJ I never had an issue right clicking and saving pictures in chrome not sure what would cause you to have one. Oh it also has a incognito option. You can open chrome in incognito mode and will no trace of where you been or what your doing and hide you from prying internet eyes as well not that I ever needed to use it myself LOL

    I have all my favorites saved in Firefox will Chrome capture all that info or will I have to set up my favorites again with memorized passwords?

    What are your thoughts on Maxthon? or Safari? (Mostly just giving you a hard time but I but there are A LOT more browsers than the "Big 3" or 4 if want to include Safari..

    And all 3 have a private viewing mode of some sort similar to incognito..

    Oh one of the features that Chrome has that I find useful is that is has synchronization, so I can sync favorites, settings, and all kinds of other goodies between my desktop and laptop automatically.

    Safari looks good and I did like it but found it slower then fire fox and no where as fast as chrome. I did download Maxthon but haven't got around to using yet something I probably should do and check it out. I downloaded it because it was suppose to be faster then chrome and had some other cool features that would make some of my thread making ideas with all the screen captures I do go faster but my daughter took my laptop because hers crashed and I never downloaded it to my wife's laptop that I'm using now. Now I'm going to have to go download and check out since you reminded me.
