Browsers! Love them or loath them. All computers have them. Without them we couldn't do even half of what makes computers useful; from watching catch up TV, films or ‘dogs do the silliest things’ on you tube; from internet shopping to catching up on gossip; from mixing with friends on social networks to researching for projects. All of these need internet browsers.
Fortunately these programs are free and easily available. Unfortunately not all browsers have been created the same and opinions vary as to which are ‘good’ and which are ‘bad’. Luckily there are lots of people out there on the 'inter web' with many, many hours of experience keen to share their thoughts and save us a lot of pain and grief discovering all the problems they've worked out for us.
They are also very creative people and try to get across their experience by using info-graphics comparing programs with common familiar things. Like the one that compares browsers to guns. And yep! You might as well shoot yourself, if you use Internet Explorer, or repeatedly slam a car door on your hand. Both cause extreme pain and achieve nothing
The other graphic compares browsers to celebrities. You may not know who all the people are, but you can get a general impression. FireFox good, Chrome better, Internet Explorer very bad, everything else in-between.
Anyway which browser do you use and why? What’s it good at, that the others aren't Can you achieve world wide fame by creating a info-graphic comparing browsers to something, perhaps to cars or tv programs? Ask yourself, which Browser would Sheldon Cooper use?
