Re: Off-topic: browser altenatives

[David Auerbach auerbach@xxxxxxxx]

I use Firefox on mac OS X (and occasionally on Windoze).  I like it.
Big advantage is that armies of geeks write "extensions" for it. And
"skins" (for lookists). I have about ten extensions loaded that
permit me to: re-start where I left off, customize the behavior of
tabbed browswing to a faretheewell, customize downloading behavior,
save webpages as well-organized files, googlebar, a script blocker,
an adblocker, etc.
 For my class webpages (and for viewing the links off of them) I
tell my students to ditch IE and use Firefox.

I too use Opera.
And I love it.
Installed exploiter 7 last week - personally I think it's terrible.

One bonus of Opera is its ability to re-start from where you left
off - it

opens all the pages you had open last time you closed it.

It may not emulate exploiter 100%, but for all I've needed it for,
it works

great.

Does anybody use Opera--or another browser other than Exploiter or
Firefox--and would be willing to answer a few questions off list?
Thanks.
