Browser Rumination

Although I wouldn't go so far as to say Internet Explorer is beyond redemption, I tend to avoid Microsoft's clunky/obsolete browser and opt for using Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome as my default browsers.

I favor Chrome over Firefox, but unfortunately Chrome is not compatible with as many sites as Firefox is.  For example, my favorite browser game of all time, Domain of Heroes, is not completely compatible with Chrome.  This is probably due to the fact that Chrome is not one of the most-used browsers out there.  Last time I checked only about 1% of users used Chrome.

This doesn't really bother me however, because I've found some benefits in using more than one type of browser.  The main benefit is that each browser saves its cookies separately.  This may see useless and repetitive, but for someone like myself who separates his personal/professional "stuff" (email, contact info, buddy lists) from his hobby stuff (browser games, website work, blog work), the separate cookies come in handy.  For example, I am automatically signed in to separate Gmail accounts when opening these two browsers...one for my school/work email and one for my home/hobbies email.  Pretty awesome for me!

Although I'm not trying to sell a browser program for you all, I do highly recommend both Firefox and Chrome, as they are both much better than the archaic Internet Explorer.

p.s. StumbleUpon makes me work so hard...this post was entirely thought up of because of the above image I stumbled into...
