    Default my affair with Google Chrome is OVER

    Likening Version 5 to the 50 year old mistress that suddenly gains a lot of weight, I decided to dump it and go back to my trusty housewife, Firefox.

    However, I liked how pretty and useful my little mistress was so I asked my wife to put on some makeup and shiny earrings.

    This is how she looks now:



    All nonsense aside, Chrome 5 was horrible for me so I've switched back to Firefox. I prefer Chrome's look and some of its functionality though, so I went a little plugin-crazy on Firefox and totally transformed it.

    The second toolbar below my bookmarks toolbar is a new web developer utility that a friend recommended. I haven't had time to play around with it much yet but some of the features look pretty cool.

    Spelling awkwardness. Anyway, I have both, and often switch in between them. I think I'm going to start using Firefox more due to some cool changes on OI that will allow simple C/Ping from profiles that works for Firefox users.

    For a while I gave Chrome an honest chance at being my default web browser, but Chrome simply does not like streaming videos, and privacy options were limited so I found it difficult to fully customize it to my liking. Plus the fact that Firefox still has loads more add-on versatility... I had no choice but to leave Chrome behind.

    Chromifox - The skin to closely emulate Chrome's look.

    Download Statusbar - Similar to Chrome, downloads stuff to status bar.
    Copy and Go - Closest thing I could find that was like Chrome's "paste and go" function.
    Compact Menu - Gets rid of the file menu bar and compacts it into a dropdown by browser buttons.
    Duplicate This Tab - Duplicates tabs like Chrome can.

    Adblock Plus - A must for the web.
    Linkification - Turns text urls into clickable links. Useful on boards such as GameFAQs or text FAQs themselves.

    Web Developer - The web developer toolbar.
    Firebug - A tool similar to Chrome's dev tool (Inspect Element on right click).
