Alternative Web Browsers

safari on the mac
Safari is certainly the most elegant browser.

I do like FF's spelling checker though, and the fact it will spell check both my Dutch and my English.
Most users use IE in one form or another (if you use 6 then it's worth thinking about upgrading to 7) and sometimes there are compatibility issues with others on some websites.
Whatever suits the individual is the right choice.
Opera and Safari are very nice, but for doing real work, and all-round flexibility, I think Firefox wins out, largely because of the range of extensions.
PicLens, AdBlock, FlashBlock, FireBug, FireShot are the ones I use most.
I'm editing this with Safari - and seeing all those ads again is a bit of a shock

I also have IE7, but only use it occasionally for sites that seem to be built specifically for it

They seem quicker than Firefox 3 and IE - but it might be just me.
There's also a social networking browser called Flock.
See what you think here
