Is firefox still the browser of choice?

Firefox, but only because ubuntu uses it as its default browser.

Yes. Tried Chrome and IE 7 but they don't compare very well, overall (some things may be better here or there, but overall value of FF remains unbeatable IMHO.)

FF doesn't get REALLY cool til you get some customization via plug ins. check out easy gestures, and fire shot, and of course, as a budding web designer, i couldnt possibly live without firebug.

I like googlepedia, which puts google and wikipedia search results side by side.

I've been using Chrome for about a week. For stripped down browsing it seems pretty nice. Firefox was getting a bit unwieldy.

Opera users - why do you prefer this browser?

Hmm, I stopped using FF because everytime it updated I had to reinstall things like my Roboform, for ex. Sometimes, the new version wouldn't even allow it. So, I switched to Opera. It has tabbed browsing, and I can add "widget" applications if I choose. It almost never crashes and has a good download manager. Now I'm used to it. But, Hey, I have FF, Mozilla, Chrome, IE7 and other browsers installed. I've found no reason to switch yet. i think Chrome is ok, too; but not enough to make it my everyday browser.
