Firefox 3 vs Opera 9.5. Your views.

[pezz]

opera is good I like di interface but I prefer firefox

Opera str8, even b4 it was free, with all the ads. firefox comes in a good second but all those addons are a *****. most of those features are standard with opera. and if u really want u can use the widgets feature.

I love to adjust every single thing about my opera by typing opera:config in the address bar. SWEET...

I personally am terified of activex controls and thats just about the only thing opera does not do explicitly.

The trash can has save my live countless times. The first browser to have tabs on windows. I am talking about almost or more than ten years now even b4 tabbed browsing was the craze.

If any of you guys read rss feeds - there is just no other browser for rss. NONE. Integrated email client, I never log into gmail when at home and i have 3 gmail addresses. Seriously.

The best skin for opera is meguiddo 1-4 ( nice and light) the black is cool too.

All the diagnostic toolbars that can be activated...

ppl i could go on and on and on.. seriously.

Just correcting you on the point highlighted. Opera was not the first web browser to introduce tabbed browsing, the first web browser to do that was one of the netscape browsers. Opera did come with the first multiple window browsing in the same window though. (that feature that u can open two windows side by side.)

Yeah, sorry. I stand corrected.

I should have said first of the current crop of browsers, since netscape is dead and mozilla did not pick up that particular rake and for quite some time opera was the only browser sporting the feature.

i was a very avid user of firefox till these newer version come out n i have alwas noticed that FF uses more of ma system resources than opera (even when using some likle addons)

Actually Skillachi your wrong, tab browsing was developed before that, actually the first browser to offer tabbed browsing was NeWS, which was a vamped up version of Emacs on the Unix OS, but the first notable browser (back in the day) to offer what we know as tabbed browsing was NetCaptor.


Anyways it's seems that FF stands firm and is pushing full speed ahead, continue cast your votes to declare who gets the techja user choice awards for browser

Well that's what we are her for, to learn something new and educate. The more you show someone something, the more it helps u to understand it.

umm. . . . ......i just really like the smooth scrooling in opera, it gives a new feel to internet browsing. i use firefox for downloading (it can resume if your internet get cut off during download) and for everything else, i use IE,( all my auto logins are stored in IEand i just cant bother to do them again in fireFox)
