How about a mario themed room? And I don’t mean like, a duvet cover and lamp shade…

So I still can’t believe how few people use the omnificent open source power that is Firefox made by the wonderful Mozilla company. Once you fox, you honestly never go back. Downloading firefox is the FIRST thing I do on a new pc or mac as it just makes life a hell of a lot prettier.

As a webdes too, I know the attrocious rendering power of other browsers *cough*IE*cough*, and I’m at the point of putting ‘this site is best viewed in firefox, IE browsers can go f**k themselves’. Anyway, not only does firefox help protect your wares better by having a superior set up to IE, but it also comes with loads of ace add-ons for fun filled, more productive browsing experience.

My favourite add-on of the moment is firebug, the all singing all dancing HTML & Css monitor. I contantly use this! I’ve also got the stumble upon tool bar, a nifty download bar which results in no annoying ‘download manager’ window, and some built in RSS features - this is just on my work PC, my home version is full of twisty turny funness!

So yes, if you’re not a convert - become one. No better time than the present really, with the imminent full release of firefox 3 there really is no excuse to use that ugly IE browser anymore! *sigh* My work would be cut down 10 fold if it weren’t for IE hacks!

Of course, if you’re not a firefox fan why not try some other open source alternatives? you can get safari for the PC now, or there’s flock (the ultimate social browser). Hell, I don’t even wanna get into the linux browsers.
