Is Google desktop a browser, also what about Safari

Internet Exploder is slowly and surely dying a well-timed death, as deserved! That excuse for a Browser is lame, has more security holes than a sieve and considering that MS stole many of the features from Mozilla, the end result is obvious.
People today are more informed and educated and know full well what kind of bug infested garbage Microslop puts out, so Mozilla Firefox is the Browser of choice, for those in the know!

Internet Explorer is like using AOL for an internet provider, just dumb. This survey is bit skewed though. Mozilla produces Firefox and Camino browsers. Is Google Desktop a browser?

Just like the previous posters, I don’t see how Google Desktop is a browser. As for Safari (and my beloved Opera), they’re on the last places of the top – see the full results here: http://www.e-janco.com/browser.php

On CG our stats are:
IE: 50%
FF: 40%
Safari: 7%
Opera: 1.6%
Others: the rest

Which I’d expect as we have more tech savvy readers.

Pah, they clearly don’t know what the coolest browser in the world is

Out of the above Opera is the only one that I never use, it’s the plugins for FF that do it for me.

Heh, a browser war is an useless topic that goes nowehere, I was half-joking. Right now Opera has more useful features for me than Firefox, but I do know that doesn’t make it necesarilly better. FF does have its good points (such as all the cool toolbars), but the bad stuff are still keeping me off switching browsers (and, to get the functionality Opera has built-in, I have to install a lot of addons, and I just can’t be bothered..)
