Why I simply LOVE Firefox!

I'm serious. Firefox is a damn good piece o software and the best browser there will be for a long time! It's so good that it captured the hearts of huge numbers of netizens, like me and, hopefully, you(!). I've gathered several reasons as to why I like the fox




  • First of all, it's got a HUGE amount of extras that you can use to pimp your browser. For example, there's thousands of themes that can spice up the browser. And, there are hundreds of useful extensions and add-ons that add more functionality to the browser. My personal favorite is PDF Download. Match that with Internet Explorer!




  • Secondly, Firefox has improved security. Internet Explorer has been on the stage too long and hackers and that type of people have exploited its many loop holes too often and too much.People are sick of IE (except for the die-hard fans.


    Okay I admit that Firefox has some security issues too, but bug fixes are regularly provided, unlike IE. This helps keep Firefox on the top of the 'safe' list!




  • Firefox has(it was there from the beginning) this cool new feature called 'tabbed browsing'. It's like multiple windows in one window, and it's cool. Tabbed browsing certainly saves a lot of time. Internet Explorer did not have tabbed browsing. It was only introduced in IE 7.0. How late is that!



  • Another great thing about Firefox is that recently two new versions of it have been released. One is the Firefox Campus Edition, with every thing that a student needs. It has this totally cool note taker and researcher called Zotero and a music player which finds free streaming songs on the web and brings them right to your browser! How cool is that?! Get it!



    The other version is specially for those who use Ebay a lot. You're always logged in to your EBay account so you can get the best bids. And, you're securely logged in too. So no risk there. Get it!



  • I've saved the best for last. Firefox has this totally cool feature which lets you read and configure your RSS subscriptions. RSS has become a necessity in today's net experience. After all who has the time to search for something when you can have it sent to you?






So watcha waiting for? Go get your free copy of Firefox now!
