Wow.. It seems these tests are carried out by google..lol
coz almost chrome is all above the graph in each category
yeah, where did you get these?
LOL.. you are right.. it seems like this graph is released by Google
I was just kidding but still my blogging friends are agree with me
anyways I still have to stick to with ma favt web browser firefox
I too love Firefox.. it is best internet browser
It’s simply awesome
I like Google Chrome sometimes
but the preference is for Firefox only
Sometimes in my college I use Google Chrome as it starts faster than Fiefox but Firefox is still the first preference
Why do you prefer firefox over chrome?
Becoz of lot of awesome and useful add on , themes and lot more stuff
well.. you have a point with that.. chrome does have themes too… but no add-ons, parental controls, spell check.. etc..
yup i too love firefox
Me too love firefox
Firefox rocks coz of all additional addons and its speed
Yup, I like firefox more than Chrome… but I’m still using Internet Explorer now (my friend’s pc)
lol IE sucks ..hope Microsoft look at tht too
haha.. it does… and I changed my mind.. I like Chrome more than firefox now
Yeah IE really sucks
If MS perfects its internet explorer then there won’t be any need to install browsers
Nice!
But now a days they got tough competition so now I don think so MS Browsers will be on No 1 again
perhaps… but I think MS still has a chance at coming up with the best IE if they would just focus on it.. after all, if they were able to make the OS,they can also make the best browser compatible to it.
I agree with you danny
google chrome is faster but will become slow with addition of lot of extentions i think.. so Firefox stands out
I don think so chrome become slow coz of add ons
y do u think so dude?
coz chrome doesn’t get slow coz of addons dude
@Dany Just be careful of the add-ons you install
My preference is still Internet Explorer (although it seems to rate the slowest — which I tend to agree). Mozilla is a good backup but you REALLLLLLLLLY have to watch what add-ons you put on because some of them can wipe your browsers altogether.
Hey Nolan any particular reason why you still using IE ?
only we choose addons if anything goes wrong its by our mistake.. thts y firefox rocks
Yeah.. if the add-on slows down your pc, then simply delete or uninstall it
Agree with you Ellen.. I do the same in case i though some add on is slowin my browser
same principle applies with computer applications.. if it slows down your pc, get rid of it and look for an alternative
@ Dany
Even I love firfox but dude no way that google chrome is slower
@ Ellen
So your friend don’t like firefox or wat ?? why (s)he is using slower IE
me 2 want to knw tht ..
Actually, she’s not really doing much with this comp so she didn’t bother downloading firefox… (that is also the reason why she lent it to me for the meantime
)
I changed her browser to Chrome now
and it’s fast 
I love it!
Ohh..finally she got some change in her machine… BDW chrome is really better than IE
@ Nolan
Can you tell us the specific reason for loving IE so much
Yeah, I want to know why too… coz I hate it.
lol IE looks lik a primitive browser..i too wanna knw d reason
I’m using opera now (I’m in an internet cafe) and it’s also faster than IE
Ohh you again switched to another browser ..good
I used Opera sometimes back ..I like it’s graphics
No vishal, opera is just used in that internet cafe where I rented a pc when my comp was taken to the repair shop.. I just used it at that time.. but it’s slower than chrome
I found another article on performance comparison and you might want to look at it too:
