Not too long ago I wrote a blog here about how I’d switched to Firefox. Not that I had any issues with Internet Explorer but I thought it was fun with the add-ons, skins and stuff like that. After a while it was all as usual…didn’t find it any better or worse than IE.
The other day I read in Julie-Ann’s blog that she’d downloaded Safari! I knew for sure that Julie-Ann doesn’t have a Mac so I asked her what that was all about. Turns out that Safari now is available to pc users too! I’m always interested in new things online. What kept me from using Firefox before was pure spite. If there’s one thing I can’t stand, it’s when people try to shove some kind of «truths» down my throat. I keep a very open mind but I prefer to find out for myself than being told what to do.
In any event…just wanted to see, for fun, what it was like…never did I expect such a nice surprise! I’m very excited about this..most of all the clarity of all graphics and font…it’s so distinct! Now I finally understand what I’ve heard about graphics on Mac computers (I’ve never tried a Mac).
The speed was what I noticed first! That’s a HUGE difference to both IE and Firefox. Honestly, I never noticed that Firefox was any faster like all people kept telling me. This IS!
This evening I’ve been trying it out…doing all the things I normally do online…and so far I haven’t had any issues with it. Well..one, but that isn’t really an issue: I sometimes play games in Pogo.com. There the Java wouldn’t work, but since you can just click Window in the toolbar, and ‘open this page with…IE, FF or whatever’, that wasn’t a real problem. I don’t even go there once a day and even if I was the advantages of this Safari clearly outweighs that little thing. There’s no going back now!
