I have tried many browsers and find the best by far is Mozilla Firefox. It has more features, good add-ons, and plug-ins. I don't like chrome because of how pages are loaded, some don't work, and it very often just shows a blank screen for me.
i like most browser ,what i don't like is signature link spammers

I would have to say Chrome is better of those two because chrome is Firefox's offspring. I guess you could say Chrome is the son of Firefox and Safari with Safari being the Mother. This is because Chrome is based on Safari code and the funding that went into Firefox got transferred into Chrome. So you could say Chrome is the next generation browser if you will. :)

Well the thing with web browsers is you use what works for you. The reason is if I were to use firefox, it will crash within the first hour due to having so many tabs open. However in opera and chrome, there are multi-threading capabilities that combat this bug which firefox and many other browsers do not possess. However by using lots of tabs in Opera and chrome I am limited to what features I can use and how easy it is for features to be implemented. But that is why I chose chrome and Opera as my primary browsers as they are the only ones that do not crash on me after an hour of intensive work and they get the job done. So really its like the following formula.
<?php
$your_needs=20; //percent
$browser_efficiency=100; //percent;
echo (4-floor(4/(($your_needs/$browser_efficiency)*5)));
YOUR RESULT TO WHICH BROWSER
0 = chrome
1 = opera
2 = internet explorer
3 = safari
4 = firefox
So following that script is an example of how you can find the right browser for the right person. :)

If you like a simplified and easy to use browser, chrome would be the choice ( as I learnt recently ). If you like to customize your browser and many fancy features Opera or Firefox would be good.
