For you poor souls

For all you poor souls who are still using Internet Explorer (which is 60% of you), the next few posts will show you the light. Now there are alternatives out there and I just thought I would let you know about them. My first choice is Mozilla Firefox followed by Safari. Both are pretty comparable with very few minor differences (and Safari is for a Mac, which is only 15%of the people who look at this blog). The casual user will probably not even care, but for anyone who uses the internet even moderately will want to look into Firefox. I originally was going to write one post to tell all the benefits but I decided to split it up to keep it from getting too big. Each of the next few posts will discuss one of the following benefits:

--Tabs
--Live Bookmarks using RSS
--Extensions
--Web readability

This is not a comprhensive list. For a more indepth discussion on the benifits and drawbacks click on the logo below.

    Nate, don't worry, we've been long-time loyal users of FireFox and before it just regular old Mozilla. My brother prefers Opera browser which is also very good.

    One of the features that I find VERY helpful is Firefix has a good pop-up blocker. I rarely get those annoying pop-up ads with Firefox, which is not the case with IE. It's not often, but there are some sites that I can must use IE.

    There is an IE Tab extention that will imitate IE when activated but gives you the same vunerabilities as IE when IE Tabs is activated.
