I was following @firefox on Twitter and there's quite a lot of fanfare down there at their HQ. Pretty cool to see the history traced all the way back to Netscape 1.0 in 1993! Who remembers that? :p

That's pretty cool video. I personally don't use Firefox though. lol

i tried using chrome, i like the interface, but i don't like the lack of third party add-on support. no ad blockers.. unless im mistaken.

Furthermore i have firefox on every machine in my house, and i love it.

Ditto. I keep Chrome around for random quick surfing, and I run the Developer's build so I have access to Xmarks syncing with my Firefox. That being said, I love the extensions in FF too much, memory leaks and all. :p

Opera still owns the shit out of it for my needs, but at least it's better than IE.

The only reason I have it installed on my PC is for my GF.

tiger_handheld 11-10-2009 07:48 PM
posting from firefox 3.0 :)

twitchyzero 11-10-2009 11:04 PM
it's only been 5 years? it felt like 8.

Netscape was the shit before IE became huge lol

woob 11-11-2009 10:26 AM

FF ftw, now speed up the start up.

+Kardboard+ 11-11-2009 03:10 PM
Opera is fantastic! But I still like FF better. Tried Chromium on my Mac last night. VERY quick, but needs moar Extensions. /:

underscore 11-11-2009 06:54 PM
it has crashed on me more times today than since I started using it last Jan >.<

hongy 11-11-2009 09:34 PM
Can you scroll on chrome yet? I remember downloading it before and I couldn't even hold my scroll wheel down and speed down the page.

JesseBlue 11-12-2009 09:13 PM
