Default Which browser do you use?

Apparently during weekends, Chrome overtakes IE as the #1 browser as people don't use work computers. and Firefox is losing popularity.

I use Chrome btw. It's faster and less cluttered than IE.

Firefox is releasing too many updates. Chrome is a fad.

Angry Birds is annoyingly addictive. What other use of iOS is there?

Firefox mostly although I've used Chrome and am considering using it again.

I refuse to use IE at work and so have downloaded Firefox there too.

Due to admin restrictions we unfortunately can use only IE at work. It's not even the latest IE and it's painful to use.

Thumbs up Re: Which browser do you use?

I use Waterfox. It's a 64bit version of Firefox with a smaller memory footprint.

Firefox and Chrome on the puter

Dolphin on the 10 inch tablet - its the best browser on a touch screen.

Opera. Love it to bits, never got on with Firefox, it always seemed so darned slow. Chrome is OK but I like the extra bits that Opera gives me - and Chrome didnt, the last time I looked (torrent client, mail, skins, in page search with a ., loads of things really.
