What browser are you using?

I've been using primarily Opera for years and will switch to Chrome on those sites that don't place nice. As of a couple of days ago though Opera has finished wrecking everything I loved about it. Being able to just type a website name in the address field and have it autocomplete the "www" and ".com" went away a few updates ago. It started giving you search results instead even though there's a dedicated search field next to the address bar. A couple of days ago with the update to Opera 11 they ruined mouse gestures. I'm now using Chrome with the Chrome Gestures and AdBlock Plus extensions.
 
I've been using Google Chrome since about the time it came out. I have the Firefox 4 Beta and I've tried Opera 11. They still don't compare to the speed and feel of Chrome though.

Can't say that I can. But I am happy with just simple tab browsing. IMHO it looks cluttered and takes up more space. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with the way it looks on your Opera browser but for myself I just prefer my address bar and the web page. No clutter.
 
Safari for Mac (Chrome isn't optimized for Mac and takes up too much RAM)
Chrome for PC
 
In my never ending saga for finding a main browser, I went back to Firefox. AI Roboform finally had an update that works in the latest version of Firefox.

AI Roboform extension, add on kept crashing Chrome.

Now I'm at Firefox 1st, Chrome 2nd, Opera 3rd. Opera needs some extensions, add ons that I use. Mainly AI Roboform...lol

I admit I dont really play around with Opera these days. But the speed is why I keep it installed. I will miss Chrome's bookmark search feature... :(

EDIT: I see Firefox has a bookmark search feature too...all is well with the world again.... :)
 
Chrome is my primary for win7 (primary) and Ubuntu. Starts up and runs faster than IE and FF in win7.

I've actually been messing around with IE9 beta and it is definitely better than its predecessors. It still sucks regardless compared to Chrome and FF.
 
I'm using the Firefox 4.0 Beta browser currently. It's slightly but noticeably faster than it's predecessor and seems to handle multiple tabs easier as well.

I used to use Firefox until I discovered Chrome. I love how simple and clean Chrome is.

I don't know about IE because I only use IE at work, but Chrome has tons of addons. They have a whole store of them lol.
 
I use Chrome when i use Windows 7 (only use windows 7 to play madden :p.)

Other than that i use Chromium in Linux.

Only time i use IE in windows is ona fresh install to download/install chrome :P

Experience wise i just like the way Chrome/Chromium is setup, speed, love the Chrome webstore x)
 
I tried Chrome, but I hated the resizing tabs. The only way to stop them is to pin each and every tab, which is just silly. So for now, stuck with Firefox so I can have a set tab size. It makes me sad because FF is becoming every bit as slow, bloated, and buggy as IE.
