Dana,
I switched to Chrome from FF and nearly every extension I want is available on Chrome. Can you tell me which ext you are looking for and I might be able to help you find the chrome alt.
Right, what's a little sweater sniffing between sworn enemies?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
I miss Webmail, which let me check my accounts across various services, and I had a tab manager that grouped tabs by color.

I'm pretty happy with Firefox 5 which I use on Windows at home and on Linux at work, though I prefer Chrome's development tools over firebug. Firefox is more tweakable though.
I haven't noticed anything about start-up times but I haven't timed anything. Off my home desktop's SSD it feels pretty much instantaneous.

FF5 will be ok once TabKit updates its extension. It trips me up when tabs get overwritten by default.

OMG, I keep forgetting my phone can be a hotspot and T-Mobile has unlimited internet. They don't cap, but they do throttle. Still, it's better than nothing, when you're in the middle of wherever.
It's pretty cool! As long as you have a good network connection, it will generate a comparably badass Wi-Fi signal.

Hey, I'm updating my word processor on my home computer (I used to just use my work laptop). I have Office XP and Office 2003, which is better?

Did any other MobileMe users get an email about signing up for iCloud? It's screaming "Phishing!!!" to me.
