Mozilla Firefox is reggae friendly
June 29th 2006 12:22
Okay so today’s post is not going to be strictly on reggae. I say strictly because it could possibly help your reggae experience.
I was first introduced to the Mozilla Firefox web browser but a couple of months ago. I always had used Internet Explorer previously as most people do I suppose. It isn’t a bad browser and as many web designers don’t test their site in anything more than Explorer you aren’t faced with tables all over the place when you go to certain websites.
Is this reason enough not to try a new web browser? I think not. I took the gamble and it paid off. Mozilla Firefox is brilliant. The main benefit is the tabbing system they have introduced. You can have a number of websites open within the same browser. This greatly improves what you had to do in the past. If you wanted to follow a link and yet keep that page open in IE, you had to right click and choose Open Link In New Window. Well you can still do that, but you can also choose Open Link In New Tab. Much more easily organized browsing. In the newest version of Firefox you can even drag tabs to keep related pages close to one another.
Another enhancement to your browsing is how they have added to the home page concept. In IE, as most of you know, you can set a home page to open when you open a new browser window. In Firefox, you can set a series of pages to open in tabs when you open a new browser. For example, say I open a new browser, I can have Google open in one tab, Reggae.net.au open in another, Dizzybeat.com in another and so on. Awesome.
There are other benefits, but tabbed browsing is by far the best and the reason you need to get Firefox. Small download too.
