Coffeehouse - Favourite Web Browser

vanlandw — Sat, 17 Apr 2004 20:08:41 GMT

I use firefox on my laptop. I like how you can themes on the mozilla browsers so i can have it match the themes i use for XP. I use sharpreader for sites that have rss on them and i'm finding less and less usage for a browser.

IE i use just because i have to for some webpages.

Coffeehouse - Where do you host your personal website?

vanlandw — Wed, 14 Apr 2004 18:42:55 GMT
