Choose all that apply if you use more than one browser on a regular basis.

Perhaps instead of this poll, pg could simply toss some page analytics onto hackernews? To be honest, I was surprised when I didn't see any trackers in the page source.

He doesn't need a js tracker if he just looks at logs. While analytics adds a lot of cool features, it is often to the users detriment.

Perhaps you missed the "Analytics by Mixpanel" logo at the bottom of the page? :)

(Yes I realize it's not actually being used)

Firefox for browsing (because the awesomebar is still way better at finding things in my history/bookmarks than Chrome for me, and because of bookmark tags). Chrome for development.

wow thats strange

I occasionally find myself using chrome for browsing because I find it that much more reactive and stable than firefox.

but I couldnt leave firefox for developing, as much as I have tried I just always find the web inspector lacking compared to firebug

Chrome for browsing. Firefox just when I need plugins like SpeedTest.
