Interesting stuff – thanks for the heads up about Opera, it sounds like it might be worth a shot. Is it not faster anymore? I haven't seen comparisons recently, but I seem to remember Chrome and Opera being the two fastest…

Thanks a lot, enjoy Jing!

@David: A few years back I actually used Opera as my main browser for a couple of years. The main reason back then was that it felt faster than its competitors, and it came with lots of nice features like eg. built-in RSS reader, e-mail client and tabbed browsing (I think Opera maybe had that feature first?). If I should have picked a browser today without thinking of the work related customizations I have in Firefox, I would definetely go back to Opera – which now's better than ever, in my opinion.

Speaking of screenshots, I've read your blog post on Jing now, think I'll test if it might work for my needs!

Great list of add-ons. Firefox is by far the best browser. IE doesn't even come close. I'd like to add to your list of add-ons. Its called Billeo. Extremely handy if you pay your bills online. Acts as a password manager too.
