Having said I’ve hardly touched Firefox since Chrome was released

Boo. (-:

Firefox? Is that still around?

IE6 is where it’s at.

Meh. Been on FF 6 for a few weeks – signed up for Beta releases or something. It took a while for my favourite add-ons to get compatible before I hit update. All I use it for is Firebug, FireFTP and some download add-on that’s mint for grabbing Mpora vids for watching offline.

Spend most of my time on Chrome 14 or 15. 😛

Last incarnation of firefox just went into mental memory leaks on my Win 7 64. I could watch the memory leaking away in task manager

Chrome *15* you say?

Chrome here. Fits in nicely with an android phone. Fire fox is sooo last year.

if i was still web developing i’d probably use FF, but I’m not, so I use Chrome (which may or may not have equally goood dev add ons, i don’t know)

Chrome here. FF pretty much reserved for the second e-mail access so I don’t have to log in and out.

Didn’t the main developer for firebug switch over to working on chrome fairly recently anyway? Also, what’s this ere thing for downloading Mpora vids?

Another version?? It seems to have gone 4,5 & now 6 very very quickly…

IE6 is where it’s at.

Are you on acid? Get Chrome mate, you’ll never look back!

No chance, I’m not one of these “early adopters”. I’ll let you lot do the live testing and I’ll be along in a decade or so.

Does it support full screen on Lion?

I suspect he was joking. We’ve only just upgraded from ie6 at work.

chvck – http://www.downloadhelper.net/ Ugly website – handy add-on. Basically grabs whatever video is being streamed via a Flash or HTML5 player.

I’ll have to look into “Firebug” on Chrome. Thanks!

Pedalhead – yep – it’s the canary build where they try out new stuff to see if it kills Chrome

Chrome has a lot of the Firebug features built in;

Spanner icon -> Tools -> Developer Tools

I wish we had. 🙁

Chrome has a lot of the Firebug features built in;

Spanner icon -> Tools -> Developer ToolsQuite right 😳 I find it under View > Developer > Developer Tools, and also have ‘inspect element’ in the contextual menu. Thanks!

More importantly though – I am an idiot and I was getting confused with which bit was which in Firefox 😳 What I actually meant was the Web Developer Toolbar, not Firebug.

I’m sure Firefox will be along shortlly to tell us all to update for some deep technical reason like they never promised us stability was the reason it was great in the first place.

I’ve had Firefox 5 since it came out, and I don’t think it’s ever crashed on me, except for once when trying to load a specific website (which also crashed Chrome when I tried it on that).

Just spent some time today trying to use Chrome (again), but it’s just too annoying. There’s so many basic features it doesn’t have, or that just don’t work in the way I think they should. I’ll get Firefox 6, mostly because every time I’ve updated Firefox, it’s got better, even though I never thought it needed to. Don’t have any reason to change, so I’ll stick with it.

I’m interested that you find Firefox ok. I loved it until it went from 3 upwards, now my laptop freezes when I’m on the internet, even thuogh I’ve uninstalled FF and am using IE (boo to IE). I’ve done a disk clean up too. Looks like I’ll have to wipe everything off and start again. Nuisance.

Been running firefox 6 for about a week now. Seems exactly the same as 5, just a bit quicker perhaps. Think they’ve changed a few things I don’t use, like tab grouping.

I presume the same people who have problems with Firefox are the same ones who have problems with Windows. Both have always been great for me.

+1, windows 7 is awesome.

I’m on a beta of Firefox 7 and it’s no different to 5

Lynx is where it’s at.

I’m on Netscape Navigator 1.0
bow down

Mosaic here, navigator 1 was too advanced for me!

I have`nt a clue about any of that ^^^^^^^^^^ 🙁
