Free Traffic Tips: How Safari Drove Me Back Into Opera’s Arms and Why I’m Still Married to Firefox

  • Ann Handley · 1 year ago
    I feel *precisely* the same way about Safari these days. The interesting thing is that a browser inspires such passion in the likes of you and me. To reiterate your line that made me laugh out loud: "And it's not me. It's you."

    Beautiful.

    Hey Ann,

    Great to see you around here! Maybe because we work and play online a lot, the browser makes us feel the same way as a faulty tube in a TV does for people who work and watch a lot of TV.

    Glad I could make you laugh out loud!

    I love it!!!!

    I won't go back to IE, staying in Firefox for good now....

    I love Thunderbird too, just wish it would sync with my WM5 Pocket PC's Outlook!!

    the only case when i use firefox is when having to surf through a socks proxy server. in all the other cases i use opera. that's like day and night, a much higher level of comfort

    Keiron,

    Thanks for coming by. I'm thinking about trying Thunderbird. I keep forgetting to see if they have it for the Mac or if I'd have to fire up Windows to use it.

    "name",

    I've never tried that. I like Opera, he's very handsome and clean-cut. But for some reason, I'm in love with Firefox. :)

    We developers struggle with Safari too: http://blog.i-together.com/2007/11/28/safari-in...

    Damn that browser! It's just so dumb sometimes.

    OMG - Hi Jof!

    I'm loving the new Blog Friends. It even seemed to like my feed at some point during the beta, but it's telling me the items are empty again. I think that's everything that uses Magpie though, so it's not you apparently, it's me.

    I just read the post and I had no idea what you folks were going through. Drag.
