    Just interested in finding out what you all use. Chrome and Firefox seem like popular ones.
    Me myself, I use Internet explorer 8.

    What do you use?

    I use Chrome but I used to use Firefox but Chrome is less processes running. Firefox has a process for each tab but on Chrome it condenses all the tabs you have running into one process which makes it work better and Internet Explorer is just a joke

    Umm isnt that the other way around. chrome has more processes running, one for each tab, which is why its concidered the fastest browser.

    I use Firefox. I haven't considered Chrome since I happy with what I have. Internet Explorer is a big no-no for me.

    I use Firefox. No real reason why; it's just because I have no compelling reason to change which browser I use.

    Also, because it's related:

    I used Internet Explorer 9 but changed to Chrome about 2 weeks ago. The only discernable difference for me is that Chrome uses slightly less screen real-estate and some of the buttons are in different places.

    Oh, and it has a built in spell-checker and you can resize text input fields but they are pretty minor.

    Firefox. Safari was always painfully slow for me, Opera wouldn't load at all, and Chrome's functionality is weird.

    Chromeeeee <3
    The one thing about chrome that is annoying is that facebook sometimes fails it.
    If you keep a facebook tab open long enough, it thinks "ooh! i have my own process! i will eat the computer's processing power by pre-loading everything in your news feed going back to the 17th century!" so you have to restart it. that's about it though.

    I first read this as "What Bowser do you use?"

    Confusion ensued.

    Chrome for the most part. Firefox for a few things that just will not work in Chrome.

    I've been using IE 9 on some of my work systems. I like it much better than previous versions.
