Maybe people should love for the sake of loving, and not with all of these optimization conditions.

I don't even know why anyone would want one of those stupid toolbars mucking up your browser. They don't do anything. At all.

I've been using Skype for 5 or 6 years now I think....and I still have no idea what half of the shit in that program is for. I'll call people and suddenly I'll have 3 separate skype windows open. Every year they rearrange the call UI in some way, and good luck finding the specific audio options you need, because they're not contained all in one place.

Yeah.
Thats why i prefer google chrome above IE. (except for reputation, obviously).
the UI is ALOOOT cleaner. I use only some quick-page-select bar or whatever its called that has things like DF forums, KAG forums, google etc on it.
Plus, being able to do searches in the adress bar saves TONS of time.

Knowing Belgium, everyone will vote for themselves out of mistrust for anyone else, and some kind of weird direct democracy coalition will need to be formed from 11 million or so individuals.

putting "?" infront of a search term does this in IE for me...

Hm, i didnt know that.
But you cant deny, just typing it is ALOT more inuitive. Google chrome just has a UI thats like a thousand times better (tabs are not 5 miles big, nice animations, quite minimalistic UI). I just love it <3

I'm pretty sure typing something in the address bar will do a search in any major browser, assuming it doesn't find a website with the same name.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

AFAIK, not in firefox, nor in IE.
They have a special bar thats usually the furthest away from where you would be doing ANYTHING on a webiste :x

You are fully wrong there. I can type whatever I want into the Firefox 4 address bar and it'll come up with something. a b brings up these forums as the first possibility, an av brings up the AVWW release notes, and if I typed potato into the bar and hit enter it would throw the word at google and give me the resulting search page.

The search bar in the corner is only if you want to use a specific search function (like Wikipedia search, alternate search engines, etc)

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

Probably won't work very well there, my school clears the local history when you logoff, and with no history it won't have any suggestions.

Only things I hate about chrome is replacing the useful status bar with the useless download bar (which, I may add, has no way to remove items from it that I've managed to find). Oh, and the complete butchering of page titles. Not that they were ever SUPER useful anyway.

These things you mentioned are the primary reasons I've yet to start using Chrome. The actual differences between it and FF seem so minimal, it makes me think Chrome is more about branding and Google control than actually being superior.

Chrom(ium) is good for looking at hueg pictures due to the lack of UI. (it has one, but not much of one).
Firefox, with or without (I'd very much prefer it without and go back to the more reasonable one it used to use like everything else does) Chrome's ridiculous versioning system, is better for having lots of add-ons.
IE is good for obtaining both of the previous, and school exams.
