Which web browser do you use?

[joshbrez]

I'm primarily using Firefox, but I really like Camino. I'd use it all the time if it weren't just a little bit too lightweight for my tastes. I have a minimal number of extensions loaded in Firefox, but the ones I have I consider essential, particularly del.icio.us integration and mouse gestures. I know that there are a few plugins for Camino, and Caminicious.app does half the job of interfacing with del.icio.us, but without these things being built in, it's just clunky.

I'm in agreement about the relative slowness of Firefox compared to Camino and especially Safari, and about the non-Mac look and feel of Firefox. If Camino and/or Safari had the above mentioned features, I'd be all over them.

I'd stay with firefox seeing as Camino is basically the same as Firefox. And Safari is great too its based on your personal preferences though.

I started out in this thread using Safari - but last couple of days have tried Firefox - am pleasantly surprised. Seems faster, like the tabs (although the first day I must have closed down the entire browser at least 3 times out of sheer (Safari) habit. Only negative thing is the fonts on some pages - hard to see. Just might have to change my vote.

I started with Firefox, because that's what i used on my windows machine, but then I switched to Camino which i preferred much more to firefox. Just recently I switched to Opera, which I have really enjoyed so far. I would recommend checking it out. http://www.opera.com

I finally got sick of Firefox being so slow, and I love that I can back up my bookmarks to .Mac and access them on the move.

Hey MODs, this thread/poll started back in 2004, so it's a little bit old.

Shouldn't we start a new poll, assuming that since 2004, new browsers appeared in the market, technology of existing ones evolved, and people might have changed their preferences?

Just a thought...
