Safari using Webkit doesn't make it bad at all. Safari is in fact a good browser (in OSX), but Chrome is superior than anything on any OS.

Anywho cheers to Firefox.

I hope Mozilla fixes the memory leaks soon, because by the time my Firefox loads I check my Gmail with Google Chrome.

Memory leaks? I beat your like me and have a thousand webpages open when you close it and have thousands of add-on, extensions, and themes installed....it take time to lot that shit, Chrome of course doesn't have the extra add-ons, I'm sure if it did, and people had tons of em' it would bog down Chrome to, actually I'm in Chrome right now, sure it's faster, but there are some pages this browser doesn't like and not to mention it doesn't have "NoScript" :)

@SOL: I found this

Speed up browsing by disabling functionality. When you want to surf Flash-free, Java-free, or even Javascript-free (even though that's not really the point of Chrome, but whatever), there's a list of -disable Chrome startup switches that can block plug-ins, content, or features you don't want, like:

Code:

-disable-dev-tools
-disable-hang-monitor
-disable-images
-disable-java
-disable-javascript
-disable-logging
-disable-metrics
-disable-metrics-reporting
-disable-plugins
-disable-popup-blocking
-disable-prompt-on-repost

Chrome now have extensions, although not many are available at the moment there are still some gems, one being AdBlock+

I also love how chrome has support for translating sites on the fly.

I think I might convert to Chrome from FF. Sadly the Bookmark support is nowhere near as good as FF.

Good for Mozilla.

I have firefox open 24x7, so I'm not sure how those update statistics work out...

I like Google, but I think they're getting too big. Nice to have choices from different companies.

nice to know that as i am also like firefox.
but i use all the three browser most.
firefox / opera / chrome

It dosn't suprise me. Firefox is amazing. Hasn't let me down yet

if no firefox = no internet browser

FireFox is the best not only it provide best security but also a huge collection of plugins to choose from.
Also firefox has the community backing those are constantly striving to make it better.

Good job firefox, keep going until 50% above market share

FF is still the most powerful now!

Good job FF, keep on going from strength to strength!
Still my favourite browser.
