"Alternatives to the iPad" ... glue four iPhones together ...  :P

Hmm, it is indeed a sign of consequence that Google started their own social network (no. 359857, I presume).
Now we all have the choice: Use Facebook and lose your privacy or use Buzz and lose your privacy. Leaked user data vs. profiling.

I think I'd choose none.

Twitter is the new way of blogging for those who only blogged to spread links or "funny" stuff. It can (and probably will) never be a replacement for blogs. You just can't put too much of a story into 140 characters. Maybe the number of "click these links to see something reeeaaaaally funny" decreased because of Twitter. I don't miss them.

telling people that YOU and ONLY YOU are correct when it comes to giving Firefox its acronym
You obviously misread me there. It was not me, it was the Mozilla people. Which is kind of a difference, right?
It is so easy to defame people for things they never said...

Oh well, EOD.

I will not tolerate any further thread hijacks that are for purely semantical or fanboyish style comments designed to generate flames/start an online feud.
This was never my intention. It is about pros and cons of browsers here, so what's wrong with contributing?

I love how this topic, started yet another argument because Tuxman decided that every browser in the world is 'plagiarizing' Mozilla Firefox, which, I must admit, is getting on my nerves.
Opera does not, but Opera better should.

Why does anyone prefer the copy?

My objection to other browsers is that they try to be a Firefox copy. Once they changed that, they might come back and tell me.

Tuxman: So, you are basically saying that any browser which has extensions is a clone of firefox, is that right?
No,  but stepwise adopting special Firefox stuff like Adblock Plus and Greasemonkey is not innovative at all.

It really gets old especially with the opera crowd and tabbed browsing.
... which they did not have first.

Virtually every Firefox extension can be ported to Chrome and you can run Greasemonkey scripts in it without an extension.
So, basically, Chrome is a Firefox clone?  8)
(I've read that there are some incompatibilities with existing GM scripts indeed.)

I chose Firefox (Phoenix back then) because it was sort of the "successor" to my beloved Netscape Navigator. I played with some IE-based browsers before, but they all were rather instable and working with them was like patchwork. Opera could never convince me, and I never needed a built-in mail client, so Fx was doing fine. Now it is not that "light" anymore but extensible. Even the Chrome people are importing Firefox' add-ons now, so, obviously, it is innovative enough.

Imagine if the world identified Americans as a people who like George Bush.
Hm, let me guess... uneducated, fat teenagers... the least of them would even find Austria on a world map... racism and force of arms are normal there... everyone's got a gun, but don't even DARE to say "fuck" in public...

No, US Americans are even worse than Bush. Get educated and try again.

(Disclaimer: My posting is, probably, full of prejudices. Feel free to prove me wrong.)

f is used as a way of writing s (depending on position in sentence).
ſ is not f.

Yep, so the Americans with their bubblegum accent should go back to British English. No-one forced them to split.

Fx should be pre-fixed with 'Special' or 'Sound' - this is the most known term for FX
You still mix up uppercase and lowercase letters.

There is no official statement that BB is wrong, but there is an official statement that FF is wrong.  :P
