I thought I would address browsers today, not as a web browser expert, but as a webmaster who is online all of the time. Note here, I have been building sites since 1996, so I think it’s safe to say I’m not a complete novice at deciding. At least for myself.

My Current Favorite, Mozilla Firefox

Over the years I have pretty much used them all, and on three major operating systems, Linux, Microsoft, and Apple. The reason I say Mozilla’s Firefox is the best is not really because of it’s current 3.5 version. It’s what they did right away that got my attention. From day one it’s been open source, and open source often equals add-ons.

Well in the case of Firefox, add-ons appeared to be a given. You can almost do anything with some tools built for Firefox. Firefox has become a plugin machine more than a browser, and I love many of the tools developers have created for it. Continue reading »

myspace

Any MySpace fans out there? I tried it a long time ago, have an account, but honestly never use it anymore. Time is the main reason, but another reason is that incredibly poor layouts that people come up with. Music, tons of animated graphics, and just complete craziness in most cases. Well here is a site for you MySpace lovers that could help you out: MySpace Layouts.

MySpace Layouts have three cool things for MySpacers. Lots of layouts, lots of add-ons, and a toolbar for your browser where you can get the latest layouts and codes. I would imagine you would need to be a hardcore MySpacer to use the toolbar, but it was feature rich. The toolbar also has a Google search feature in it. This could be good if you have the Google Toolbar already. You could simply remove that one, and add the MySpace one. In addition to their layouts and add-ons, they have lots of free MySpace graphics, code to tweek your layout, and forum.

For you anime lovers they had over 100 layouts. NFL fan? They had your category, but no layouts to be found. Taking a look at all of them, they have at least 400 different layouts to select, so I think these guys can help you out if you are in need of a makeover. Pretty good helper site MySpace users, and if you have no clue what MySpace is just visit their site: MySpace.com.
