This is a great and very fast browser. There are some nice functions inlcuded, like the last pages you surfed shown as icons on a single page (Chrome uses a similar style page). You also have mail and newsgroup functionality built in to the browser as well as a bitTorrent client. There's even unique features like mouse genstures and widgets! |

Great browser - no clutter - a very minimalist layout - almost sparce. But don't be fooled into thinking it is light on power or features. It is designed to be ready for cloud computing with its fast java engine - which makes using google documents or calandars fast and easty. Using google gears (built in) allows you to run applications like googlemail directly from your desktop (icon placed on your desktop like a local program). |

Ade's Comments: |
I have been a firefox fan right from the start (years ago I used to use the Netscape browser from Mozilla). I'm sorry to say this, but Microsofts Internet Explorer is rubbish. It is very slow and stodgy and is constantly playing catchup to keep up with.... well... every other browser in terms of usability and features. The vast amount of plug-ins for firefox means you can set your browser up exactly how you want it. I hope to put up some hints and tips on using this browser soon. |
