So I’ve been using Internet Explorer for years (like since me and the internet met) and despite having tried other browsers in the past (typically various versions of Netscape) have always come back to it.
So, despite having had Firefox recommended to me by virtually everyone and loads of websites that seem to know what they’re talking about I was still pretty reluctant to attempt the switch (you can take a horse to water etc…). Anyway, I gave it a whirl at the beginning of this week and had a play about with it. And to cut a long story short, I am a convert. IE sucks. Use Firefox. And I don’t think I have even scratched the surface insofar as all the stuff you can do with it.
Only one complaint thus far, that being I can’t copy and paste blog posts into Firefox which is a little irritating (not too sure if it is me doing something wrong), so for the time being IE has not been completely shelved.
If you haven’t got it already, download here.
Think I might make that my new year’s resolution actually. Use Firefox as web browser… Check, done.

I prefer Opera, for a fully featured, fully compliant browser. It be free and it be here
Might try that too in the spirit of adventurous web browsing!
Nick,
Sorry for putting this here but need to get in touch with you. Do you still want to come see a band on Monday? The details are:

I've emailed the flyer to your work email. But I'll bring spares. If Mark or anyone else wants to come feel free as they need 30 people to play a gig there again. For further info check out the website. It is www.listentowake.com

Yeah, am doing the ctrl-c and ctrl-v from word. Will try the via notepad thing. Otherwise if it worked for you, not sure what the problemo is for me (?).
