Victor,
I do have fox 2 installed but I just seem to always use Safari. I guess I just like the clean looks of it better than all the rest…
Oh Yea… I do sync all my bookmarks between my MacBook Pro, iMac and iPhone.

I have been using Firefox on Windows at office (Safari on Windows seems to have issues) I use Safari on my Macs (I just like it better I think) Now I'm using FF3 on all machines and giving that a try. With foxmarks I can synch bookmarks on all machines (windows and macs) and there are some cool plugins for FF (look at Piclens) FF seems faster then Safari on the Mac also.

I used Flock for almost 4 months. I liked it a lot. Went back to FF during the Beta. I'm always trying new stuff.

Thanks Sandra, I tend to drift from Firefox to Safari to Flock. Guess it's my nature to try things.

I've been using Safari for years, and Firefox only on the rare occasions that a site didn't support Safari. Are there any compelling reasons to cross-grade to Firefox 3?

I used Firefox when I was a Windows guy, and then I switched to Safari when I got my first Mac. I decided to give Firefox another try, and I am loving it. Firefox 3 fits so well into the Mac look and feel, and I love having the ability to add plugins that do pretty much anything, from exposing the code of a website (Firebug) to showing me my Google Reader Items (Google Reader Watcher).

Keep up the awesome work Victor!

i use safari because it syncs the bookmarks and preferences sync with all of my computers and devices. Apple says that it is the safest and fastest browser for the Mac. I do have Firefox 2 installed but i dont like it as much. Safari is just polished in my opinion.

I'm loving Firefox 3 so far. Plug-ins and add-ons are starting to show up for it. Right now, I'm using Chatzilla, FoxMarks, Google Notebook, TwitterFox (although disabled presently), Google Gears, 1Password, and Download Helper.

I personally prefer flock over FF, never have been a FF fan on mac (use it all the time on the PC side). Actually my browser of choice is good ole safari.
