April 14, 2005 Hot Like a Firefox
If you needed more evidence of Firefox becoming the victim of its own success, then brace yourself for commercial offerings for your favourite browser. When I first discovered the ‘Fox, it was like being part of quiet revolution to overthrow the evil Explorer dictator. Now it’s like everyone’s using Firefox because it’s fashionable to do so.
Oh, by the way, if you aren’t using the ‘Fox, then 
Incidentally, Firefox for the Mac ain’t as great as the PC version in terms of extensions and stuff. Anyway, between Camino, Safari and Firefox, it doesn’t bother me any which way.

Have to pay for it. And I hate all the advertising they they stick on the free version. Also, Opera isn’t as compliant Firefox but better than Explorer.

Yes, you have to pay. Boo hoo. And I assume you mean it’s not as compliant in the sense that it doesn’t render horribly badly coded pages properly. Not it’s fault really (although something that it needs to do better).
I’ve tried firefox – it’s ugly in its naked form. I don’t want a browser I have to search for ages to find the mods necessary for the functionality I want. With Opera I get everything I want straight “out of the box”

I do make sure that my pages come up in Opera too. Just in case those with plenty of money to throw around want to view my pages. I’m fair like that see.
Except this page or “the other” site don’t really validate to W3C. But a design overhaul is in order for this site in the future.
