Tags: browsersLast fall I started having performance issues with Mozilla Firefox. The problem was duplicating itself on both of my computers, so after several weeks of frustration, I gave up and switched to Google Chrome. It was noticeably faster, and did everything I wanted it to do (for the most part; it still needs a lot of development and improvement for extensions and such, and the handling of Flash and Adobe Acrobat/Reader), so I stuck with it.
Then I went to BlogHer ’10, and checked out the Rock Your Firefox suite. I got a tote bag, a t-shirt, cute stickers, and a sneak peek at Firefox 4 beta. So guess what I’m running now? :)

I missed the Firefox suite. I stopped by there Saturday morning, but it was too early and they weren’t opened yet. Microsoft’s was open but they turned me away because I didn’t have an appointment. Oh well, I guess that means they can’t try to sway me away from Firefox!

Firefox’s suite was pretty cool, I’m sorry you missed them! As far as Microsoft… wow… appointment only? That is really uppity!
I cannot get Java to work with Firefox for the life of me. I’ve installed both Firefox and Java and it still says it does not detect the plugin so I’m sticking with chrome.
