The Browser Den

As promised earlier I asked an IE 6 user to try out Firefox 2 for a week and to let us know their opinions. Thanks go to Ian Charlton for this review - A Week with Firefox 2. This review is from someone who has not used Firefox previously but with the changes up ahead with IE7 decided this was as good a time as any to try out the other options. Ian has had good experiences with Firefox and this has motivated him to try Opera too, maybe we’ll get another review if he’s not too busy.

As for other reviews, I’m still writing my review of Firefox 2 on Mac OSX and if you’ve not seen it already, there’s the “A Week With IE7” review that I’d written following the launch of IE7.

Two Firefox 2 reviews are on their way. I’ve managed to convince a current IE6 user to try out Firefox 2 for a week under Windows XP. I will also write a review of Firefox and Camino under Mac OS X.

The first browserden review “A Week With IE7” is now online. Last week I decided to use IE7 rather than Firefox for a whole week to see how it compared. Although it’s a big improvement on IE6 I’m happy to be returning to Firefox as my regular browser.
