Firefox has a couple that I love. I haven't noticed much bloat yet in my usage. I do, however, interchange between safari and firefox on a daily basis. I'm gonna pay particular attention to the possibility of bloat this week. I'll be sure to pass a long any findings. :) I'd love a better plugin system for safari. Firefox has a couple that I love.

Have you experienced this ? To be honest I never use FF and cant find a real killer feature that would make me switch to it. At one time I did use FF and got used to the plugin features but having not used it for a long time I dont really miss the ability to add-on to the browsers basic functionality.<br><br>Having said that I do think Apple could help Safari usage by developing a plugin community. I suspect they havent done this for the same reasons that they didnt allow 3rd party apps on the iPhone at first, ie to reduce support and problems due to non-Apple code.
