Browsers–Best to Worst (That I Have Used)

Browsers have been around since 1990, so why don't I say the best to worst browsers that I have used. Note that IE was run on Windows 7, and the rest on Mac OS X 10.5.8.

1. Chrome


Chrome is very fast, secure, and excellent with the Omnibox. I have Chrome 21.0.(blah blah blah), which is very good, and all I can say is #1. Peacekeeper by Futuremark notes Chrome as King of the Hill.


2. Opera

Although I have been using Opera only for a week, I can say it should be number 1, except I have not had enough experience. This is Opera 12.15 (I am blogging on Opera right now).


It is very fast, it is easy to navigate in, and excluding startup time, it would be the greatest browser. Allowing panels, Speed Dial (Safari's equivalent is Top Sites), Opera Link, and Opera Turbo and all those other good things, I just wish the greatness has spread to the US rather than be stuck in countries around Norway.

3. Safari


Safari is definitely also very good. Preinstalled with Mac computers, it can move quickly, Top Sites are awesome, and even the navigation is organized. Safari is fast to open, secure, and it quickly moves along with the connection. I use Safari 5.0.8.


4. Firefox

Firefox is very good in terms of speed, add-ons, and search. However, Firefox does not have a top sites option, and it can be slow with many windows open. That's all I can say. I could be accusing Firefox, but actually, I am using Firefox 4, a very old version of the browser. Firefox 20 is out and I'm not even using Firefox 5.


5. Internet Explorer

PUT EXTRA EMPHASIS ON THIS HORRIBLE BROWSER!!!


Internet Explorer is slow, totally annoying, and Microsoft has to do IE5 and IE6 with "ActiveXObject()" in Ajax!

GOD, EVEN IE8 SUCKS!

THEY KEPT MAKING EXCUSES FOR NOT PASSING THE ACID TESTS.

I was using IE9 at the time, and now: IE10.
