Back to the Fox
I tried. I really did. But the Fox is just better in almost everything.

To Safari or to Firefox
Since I made the switch I'm having this dilemma: Should I use the good ol' Firefox or use the more macish Safari?
As I'm posting this I just discovered one more reason not to use Safari. Blog.com's rich text editor doesn't work with Safari. Still I'm forcing myself to give it a try. First because it fits much better into the OSX GUI and also because it seems to be a little bit more snappier than Firefox. So what don't I like about it? Well in fact a number of things:
- I miss all those nice Firefox extensions. Sure there is Pimp My Safari, but it just ain't the same thing, is it?
- I still didn't find a way to use the address bar to perform I'm feeling lucky searches in google;
- I can't move or edit bookmarks without entering the bookmark manager thingy;
- Some sites just don't like Safari;
- I found a way of having Firefox's "Search as you type" feature but it's not as good as the original one;
- And other pet peaves that I just don't remember right now ...
Still I'm sticking with Safari for some time and give it a chance!
