Why Not?

What else is new? I just finished removing some of the many toolbars that were cluttering up my IE window. I really let it get out of hand. I went back to Firefox awhile ago and noticed how clean the window was and so that was my motivation. I really do wish I could settle on one browser, but each has things I like or I’m accustomed to and it’s hard to break old habits. IE lets you create new tabs easier than Firefox and the Favorites are easier to manage as well. Firefox is cleaner and quicker and has a multitude of extensions to choose from. Some of the coolest stuff comes with Firefox. Plus, it’s safer. But trying to keep the benefits straight in my head is a chore; which one does what best? If I’m posting to my blog, I can drag the text, complete with formatting, right onto my blogger window. But it’s a ‘move’ and not a copy. This means that I have to go back to Word and Ctrl-Z to restore the text. With Firefox, I drag the text onto the blogger window and it copies it, but without the formatting? If only the two browsers were interchangeable. Why can’t they just get along?
