My coworker and I have recently been having an ongoing discussion about web browsers.
This comic provides some perspective to the argument. This one too.
I am a staunch Firefox user, and am (nearly) physically revolted at people who still use Internet Explorer.
My friend uses Opera, an awesome browser with some crazy features. I
had heard of opera before, but I haven’t actually used it. My friend
showed me feature after feature that constantly impressed me. I
refused to believe that Firefox couldn’t do anything that Opera could.
*Cue song - “Anything you can do…”*
Enter the beauty of Firefox Add-Ons. Almost every feature that Opera
touts can be done or emulated in Firefox with addons. I proceeded to
show my friend how my “pimped” Firefox now is as good as his Opera, and
all he could do was mock me.
My friend - “If you’re going to make it work like Opera, why don’t you just use Opera?”
Me - “…”
My friend - “That’s what I thought.”
So now our catch-phrase is “Maybe there’s a Firefox Extension for that…”
[Update: I’m still not switching to Opera.]
