when the internet was coming of age in the mid to late 90′s, the browser wars were kicking in.

technology has changed a whole lot since and so have the browsers, you can do more with the browser alone today than you were able to do with a fully loaded computer with all the shareware you could find hacked up from astalavista.

tom’s hardware has an awesome write up and comparison of the most popular browsers in the market available today.  aptly titled, the web browser grand prix, they set about an awesome methodology in comparing the big five, namely, IE, Firefox, Chrome, Opera, and Safari.

my favourite being Opera did rather well which I was expecting completely. what it doesn’t measure is the usability and feature set of the browser, which in my opinion is far superior for Opera than any other browser.  the amount of customization one can do in Opera, along with mail and feeds integration, tab management, opera unite and link along with widgets makes it the most usable piece of software i have on my computer.

anyway, go and figure it out here, but do go through it carefully, it rocks.
