Electronista have published a very interesting, if not very scientific, head to head review of the four main web browsers, Internet Explorer (IE), Firefox, Safari and Google Chrome.
Interestingly, Safari and Chrome seem to lead the way in both speed and compliance to the major web standards. Unfortunately, bringing up the rear with it’s brand new browser offering was Microsoft with Internet Explorer 8, which managed to be the slowest on all tests and comprehensively fail the compliance tests.
The article highlights that there are differences in the way browsers work and how they can affect a users experience and enjoyment of the web.
All of the featured browsers are available as free downloads so nothing should stop web users downloading and trying a new browser, you never know, you may end up viewing the web in a whole new way and quicker too!!
