I’m pretty set in my ways (cue collective “no shit” from all who know me) so change is a big deal. I like my routine and don’t like when things veer off-course. So the fact that I’m considering a rather large change in my life is a little disconcerting. Especially since it’s completely my initiative. What is this huge change I’m considering which will have a dramatic effect on my life?

I’m considering switching to Firefox. (Cue dramatic GASP from the internet).

Yes folks, it’s true. I haven’t even switched to Explorer 7 for the same reason- I hate change. I’m set in my ways. I have all my links nicely lined up where I like them and can find them in my sleep and having to reset them all. Ok laziness is part of it for sure. But lately, Explorer just isn’t cutting it. It won’t load some of my most used websites properly, such as CFRB-AM and Hotmail. Both seem to prefer Firefox, which is particularly weird for Hotmail, don’t you think? (Bill? Are you listening?)  My father uses Firefox because he tries to stay away from Microsoft whenever possible, but he might have the right idea for once;)

Many of my colleagues say Firefox is faster. I’m inclined to agree. It seems to be the browser of choice for bloggers and social media fanatics, so there must be something to it.

So what do you use? Are you an Explorer or a Foxer? Am interested to hear what everyone prefers and why.

In the mean time, I’ll be quivering violently about making this monumental change on my own accord and wondering what I’ve gotten myself into. (Cue collective eye roll about my pathetic dramatics).
