Firefox

The web browser everyone should be using these days is Mozilla Firefox. It has built in tabbed browsing, blocks pop ups, and lets you be reasonably sure you won’t get hit by the latest IE security holes. It’s also super fast and you can customize how it looks with easy to install themes.

The other day I downloaded the web developer extension for it and it’s really useful for anyone who works on the web. It lets you outline block elements, do HTML and CSS validation, turn off/on javascript, check cookie data, and a ton of other things.

There is also a less useful, but fun extension that enables “mouse gestures.” This lets you control the browser through pre-programmed mouse movements. For example, if you make an “h” it takes you back to your homepage.
