Honestly, all the browser vendors are members of the W3C team. Apple, Opera, Mozilla, Microsoft, etc … ALL of them are members of the W3C.

Instead of making war to dominate the browser market, they rather should work together, take the best pieces of their respective browsers (IE7, FF3, O 9.51, Safari 3) and provide and UNIQUE browser that would be really nice. And that would greatly simplify the task of developers and webdesigners.

I use Opera for brownsing ( is that the word?) and Firefox for design (cuz Firebug rulez) It helps when i need to have the documentation of certains frameworks open in Opera while I development the page in firefox. ^^

It seems that opera has less then 1% of market share, its a shame…

Well, it must be doing well, because I can’t reach the download site. Overloaded, probably. Bodes well for the release. I’ll try again tomorrow.

Now that makes me think if I should be worrying about debugging CSS in opera. It will catch on fast, but it can still fail to bring on more users. Its like gmail, it has horrible support of development languages in emails, but it still comes out on top.

In terms of browsers and webdesign, yes, Opera may someday catch up with Firefox, it has always respect standards like everyone should and that’s gonna pay off soon..

But talking about a whole web development platnotform, no way, Firefox’s the king.

And don’t even talk about the fact that Firefox has already crossed that line in which you describe it as a browser.. Why? One word: “Extensions”.

It’s a whole desktop environment! Ok.. Went too far *shy*

Whenever I think of that browser, I think of oprah winfrey… which is a bad thing. They should have named it something different.
