i like opera for 4 reasons,
1. it renders fast

3. it supports ctrl+z, wicked feature :>
4. when you close and reopen, all the tabs from before are still there; key

however, firefox is the champion for web development.
not only is firebug awesome, but i still use the older web developer plugin.
its good for showing form details, outlining things, and clearing the cache,
all very quick to get to and execute.

for a while i tried the multiple browser thing. but managing bookmarks in
more than one browser is a pain. also, have you ever looked at memory
consumption on ur pc w/ 2 browsers running?? get another gig for that :)

so, despite some of the klunkieness of ff, that is what i use for browsing
and development.

eric,
thanks for the tips on the safari plugins, Drosera & the Web Inspector, ill
definitely install those for my safari debugging :)

I think I'm just bitter because I like FF so much yet it keeps getting
more sluggish on me. At home on Ubuntu x86 it is okay. At work here
on OS X PPC it is horrible. I also use the web developer toolbar for
clearing cache/cookies & viewing rendered source. Forgot about that
one. :)
