Of browsers and software

Firefox has been crawling for me recently. I mostly fixed this today be uninstalling Google Desktop from my MacBook.


However I also fired up Opera - boy did it feel fast next to Firefox. I really do like the cross browser sync features of Google Browser Sync which allows me to keep home and office in sync, and things like Web Developer (which is only an occasional use, but invaluable), however Opera is a very nice browser. Its a bit worrying to see all the stuff on pages I normally don't see - I normally always use AdBlock, but other than that Opera is under strong consideration.

I don't have a Mac myself, but check out Omiweb (non-free), or Shiira. The latter one is (as far as I've heard) a ripoff of Omiweb, but it's cost-free and open source.

(I just "next blog":ed my way here and happened to see your post)
