    I am currently in the process of testing Opera 10. I’ve been wanting to make the switch for the last few years, but I’ve always found my Firefox Internet browsing experience to be more appealing at the end. My test will probably go on for the next few days before I decide if there will be a permanent switch this time around.

    I don’t know why Internet Explorer doesn’t have a build in spell checker, instead of having to install ieSpell as an add-on. Every other browser has a spell checker build into it and it spell checks as you type. I suppose ieSpell is OK, but it would be nice to not have to go through the extra step of manually running it. It needs a code update, but looking at the about it looks like it hasn’t been updated since 2006!!

    Either IE8 doesn’t like Kontera, or the Kontera script crashes when it’s begin loaded by IE8. Either way I’ve had to remove it from my blog. But there is something that is clashing with both only on that site, because IE8 loads the Kontera script just fine on the rest of the sites1

    once Google has implemented bookmarks backup in Chrome, similar to Firefox Xmarks, I will be ready to make the switch from Firefox to Chrome. I simply have too many bookmarks to I do not want to loos. Even if I import them into Google Bookmarks, there is method to actively sync them with Chrome, yet.

    Google Chrome is a great browser, but I wish it had more plugins/extensions options. I’m sure that there will be soon. Today I read on TechCrunch that a new theme gallery will be released soon. I also wish it would start searching the page when I start typing, like in Firefox, instead of having to press Ctrl+F first.

    I love using Google Chrome at work. It is so fast. I think that’s thanks to the DNS pre-fetching. I don’t know if this a feature of IE8, but if it is not it needs to be. It makes work so much faster.
