oh the browsers!

Just had another frustrating experience with these internet browsers. Honestly, is the web technology sliding down into the pit? Internet explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome. my my! These are the browsers used by majority of the web users to browse. but can any of you identify one browser which does everything fine?? Forget about IE. One of many terrible inventions of Microsoft. The fact that they force their operating system users to use their IE is enough to drive me away from it. oh yes! I hate it when people try to force it on me :P There! I have told something about myself too ;)
Perhaps I will make an effort to install IE in my laptop if they allow me to remove it once. since that is never going to happen I am never going to use IE. of course there are these "other" issues of IE like crashing once you have more than 4 tabs and the most annoying part of it would be the memory issue. Seriously what is it with these people who develops it? Running an instance for each tab?!! oh comeon! there has to be something better than that. so my repulsive experience with IE pushed me towards Mozilla Firefix.
oh sweet firefox. What can I say about you! I would say you are the best that happened to me :) (uhmm..it was then) but the fact that I have to fiddle a lot with plugins put me down a bit. but hey I am not complaining!
along came google Chrome! Dear god! It was like meeting my dream guy ;) It had everything. Multi tabs, super fast, not a memory killer. that was it for me. hmm...but guess no guy is perfect :P It started with facebook ( yes, you could identify me as a facebook addict) It was fixed sized. The link to check the "older posts" disappered :S Guess its a FB issue with Chrome. but hey this is all about blaming the browsers so I will blame it on Chrome :P. As for what happened today, I am totally gutted :@ Youtube homepage looks terrible. I can see no frames apart from recommended videos. What happened to the rest??!! Had to check youtube of firefox and its absolutely fine. What do you people do?Do you just decide to fiddle with your setting for each websites? For god sake youtube is owned by google. Atleast keep the one you own perfect. well I think I should stop moaning now. but hey, after all blogger is owned by google and though of spaming it with my piece of junk :P
