I use google chrome, but right now I'm on my phone (and probably exceeding bandwith, but oh well). I love using my phone browser. Its usually pretty fast, although I can only view videos from youtube on my phone (Blackberry Torch), which sucks because most of the people I watch on the internet use blip. Chrome is much faster than IE, and I can't stand safari. I've never used Opera.

Anyone remember those browsers back in the later 90's and early 2000's? Like netscape and such?

Safari and Firefox. I despise internet explorer, and never got around to giving chrome or opera a go.

Well, Firefox is my all-time favorite all-round webbrowser, but I seem to catch myself using GChrome more and more... still, the only drawback of Firefox is that it gets quite heavy on the system memory usage. Chrome isn't perfect either since it has less add-ons than Firefox and is less customizable and sucks at opening, handling and navigating through more than 50 tabs (I suffer from HMTWBS ? a syndrome I originally invented by myself that means "Hyper Multi-Tab WebBrowsing Syndrome" and so using less than 40 tabs at once is not an option with me).

Anyway, I've tried over 15 different browsers, but the top 3 are always the same in terms of overall functionality and ease of use (my top 3 list):

1. Firefox, still the new overall queen of webbrowsers.
2. Chrome, that little bast*ard's quite fast and its design minimalism is cool, but it still has a long way to go to take the 1st place.
3. Opera, for being the innovator type of browser that all other browser inevitably have to copy from. Still, it lacks Firefox's extensibility in terms of add-ons and that's why it takes the 3rd place in the chart.

There are also other good browsers but they are not as great as the top 3 (for now, who knows, a new Chrome/Firefox/Opera-like one may very well hit the market in the future).

Google Chrome, its fast, its simple, and its all like (in a soft, soothing voice) "its okay, we aren't gonna bombard you with Google promoting task-bars or whatnot, just browse the internet buddy, ok? I'll go fetch some warm milk and cookies for you.....you hear that, its called bacon, today, a child is born unto us and his name is bacon."

Google Chrome for me, and I'm not saying that because a Google employee is threatening to kill me if I don't. That would be quite a riot.

I use Opera while waiting for Internet Explorer 9, as soon as that comes out I'm switching.

FireFox here, for some reason IE seems to hate me. It always seems to freeze and lag out on me. I've never had a problem with FireFox though.

I'm currently on Internet Explorer, but I plan to convert to Chrome sometime in the next few days.

FHIREFHOX.

I use Firefox. It works fine, so I don't see a need to use anything else. Unless I want to check out foreign webpages, then Google Chrome's translate feature is really nice!

Firefox.

I used to use Internet Explorer, but...It was slow and crashed a lot.
Every time I used it, it crashed!

Mostly chrome, it's just so simplified and easy to use when your in a rush and right now, I'm using Firefox for the first time, unfortunately the administrators in my high school want us all to use IE, which I hate for some unknown reason.

I used to use a combination of Firefox (normal browsing) and Google Chrome (incognito) but with the Firefox 4 Beta, I feel no reason to use anything else. The layout is very slick, and Private Browsing seems to be a much better system than other browsers.

I use FireFox the most (due to its group/sort tabs add-on), though I use Chrome for one site that won't work on FireFox, and Opera for mass clicking on GPX+

Firefox is my favourite, it seems to work more for everything for me, and I like it's layout and customisability. I tried Chrome and I like it's speed (which isn't a lot of difference on a fast PC and good internet connection), but personally I prefer Firefox, nice to see those two are well ahead of the rest.
