annie Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 I found quite a collection of seldom seen browser addons in the grep of TCH visitors: StumbleUpon/1.906 Avant Browser [avantbrowser.com]; MyIE2; Crazy Browser 1.0.5 Few IE, logically enough. I'm just curious to hear who's using browser addons, and why? Quote
TCH-Dick Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 I think most people use them for tabbed browsing. Of course, Mozilla is the way to go for tabbed browsing, but some don't know that. Quote
TCH-Rick Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 I use Crazy Browser primarily because of the Tabbed feature and the ability to have Groups. I click on the browser link and it opens the Forums, Help Desk, DNS Stuff, SamSpade, Monitoring Page, and a couple of other sites I use here. I can also easily open my News group with pages to check, or my School group with several pages I want to check regularly. I've tried others but I am too used to CB to change. Quote
DCS Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 Crazy Browser is a great way to go, especially since I visit many web page at one time, it's a nice advantage. Mozilla is also a good browser, if you don't like using IE . Quote
DCS Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 That works too, Rob. Either way, it's both effective. Quote
Alan Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 I am a anything goes. lol. I use Keyboard Express for all my fast typing needs. I use Nojoks for my tournament needs. I use MSN Messenger Plus! For my messenger Automation/upkeep/logging needs. And just have a very big group of browsers in my menu. lol, but since I found out about it, after I reformat this Monday, I will also try Crazy Browser. Hehehe ~Alan Quote
DCS Posted June 6, 2004 Posted June 6, 2004 I only use Crazy Horse on this computer alone, but when I use my other ones, I use the Alt+Tab function . Quote
kaseytraeger Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 I use CTRL-T to add new tabs in Firefox. However, I also generally have more than one Firefox window open at a time because I try to keep like-minded topics in one window (e.g., web development stuff in one browser window, my various email accounts in another, etc.) I use ALT-tab to switch focus between the different browser windows. So I guess you could call me a CTRL-T / ALT-tab hybrid kind of person. When I used to use IE, I had several add-ons ... Google toolbar, Yahoo companion, mapquest address bar. Mostly I used Google to suppress pop-ups and Yahoo to access my mail. But now with Firefox, I don't need any of those. It's very nice having such a clean, efficient browser as Firefox. I won't be going back to IE except to test newly developed pages to see how they look in IE. Quote
DCS Posted June 7, 2004 Posted June 7, 2004 I haven't used Firefox before. But after your post, I went to download.com to download it. It's a pretty good browser; similar to Crazy Browser. Quote
