How many different browsers do you use?


Technology


Personally I'm fond of Avant, Firefox, Google Chrome & Opera.


I just use firefox. Never tired many of the others


I almost always use Firefox. Only occasionally do I find it necessary to start up IE (like if I want to use the Nvidia website's driver check thingy)...


Firefox. End of Line.

Tried Chrome for a while. Didn't care for it.

And yeah as EG said there's random times where something forces me to use IE. Still get the "first time used" message thingy everytime I load it, never bother to go through the tutorial or whatever it is....


Basic Google.

Firefox almost exclusively. On the rare times I find a page that Firefox has issues with, then I will try Chrome and if that fails then i will break out IE against my will. But sometimes IE is the only one that will work, typically with some of the Microsoft web pages.

Firefox exclusively. Explorer is too buggy, and for some reason, Chrome just weirds me out.

99% Safari; I use Firefox for access to a few government and military sites.

I have Chrome, but it gives me a hard time over certificates, so I don't use it.


I use IE 8 but until very recently I used IE 7. With IE 7 if I took way too long to answer a post here not only would it be eaten but I would be logged out. That hasn't happened since switching to IE 8 but it didn't always happen before either so I don't know if that is a problem. *shrug* The only other problem I have ever had is that a while back while searching through various sites (mainly deviantart) for pics, I had the browser crash on me when I had somewhere well over thirty (not an exaggeration) tabs simultaneously open. It seems to work fine for me on every site.

My Usage:
85% FF 3.latest (my main browser of choice)

13% Chrome (I use when I need to log into a different Google session but don't want to log off in my main browser)

02% IE 8 (I use just to confirm if I have seen a bug in FF or Chrome or when I want to see ads (I have adblock in FF and Chrome so I never see them otherwise)

Answer: Yes.

Of course, I'm a web developer, so...

Long answer:
Personal use: Firefox
Advise for people with low resources to use, especially when ALT+Tabbing out during video games: Chrome
Advise for people who are blind to use: Opera
Test for professional websites: Firefox, Chrome, Opera, IE6+. Everything else is just noise. (Edit: if I'm doing any kind of javascript or forms, I test in Safari, but it's generally not required if you're testing in FF from what I've experienced)
Test for my own websites: as at work but I don't give a s#*$ about IE6 users and test for IE 7 only as my last task. ;)

IE6 at work.... we so need to catch up with the times.
Firefox 3 at work, why because it works better.
Chrome at home.
