I don’t know why it took me so long to get round to it, but I finally decided to install Firefox today.
I couldn’t believe how quickly it installed and how fast it runs. All the little things which were behaving strangely in IE6 now behave properly, and I get the tabs which I particularly liked in Netscape, plus very nifty search bar. I’m an instant convert.
Best of all, there is another whole world of plug-ins and extensions to explore and install, to keep my inner anorak happy for hours.

This is not the best blog in the world; its a tribute | Hosted by Midphase of 115 Broadway, Floor 5 New York, NY 10006, United States
Anything I write here is my own opinion and is not endorsed by my employers, the Labour party (nationally or locally), my family, the cat, the dog, the other dog, West Ham United FC or anyone else - and especially not Midphase Hosting. Its just a personal blog, in other words: Promoted and published by me on behalf of me (yes its all me, me, me. Vanity publishing at its worst) although I'm not particularly promoting anything, just describing and generally rambling for my own entertainment, but the whole Internet thing is such a grey area you have to be on the safe side don't you? There is always going to be some idiot who takes it all seriously. No names - you know who you are. Not that anyone reads all this stuff at the bottom anyway, not when there is more exciting stuff to do like watching paint dry...

These are some of my favourite FF extensions:
ColorZilla

Feedview
I’ll have a look at them – sometime after May 4th probably. Thanks.
Still impressed by the RSS feeds on the toolbar.
