Get Firefox

Get Firefox!

Have been using Firefox for a couple of weeks now (after Opera started going a bit mad) and was pleased to find it’s come a long way since its early days. Enough to make it my new browser of choice. The number of add-ons and extensions are boggling, some of my favourites include Adblock to get rid of annoying adverts and StumbleUpon, to find interesting random websites. Add to that the enhanced security and easy update process and the fact that it’s FREE, there’s no reason not to use it if you’re still stuck on crummy old Internet Explorer.

Hope you like the fruity new graphics by the way :-)
