I was wondering if there is a list of famous people who use the Firefox browser. When I say "famous" I'm not limiting this list to people like Jennifer Aniston or the Dali Lama.

It could just be people who are well known in a particular community, such as popular bloggers or columnists.

For example, Matt Cutts is a fairly influential voice in the Search Engine community and has given high praise to Firefox.

Maybe we could make it easier. Are there any inflential voices in the search engine community (not employed by The Devil) that have given high praise to IE?

Why?

Dan beat me to it.

Dan_raven uses Firefox.

Dan is merely good looking and darn sexy. Dunno if he is considered famous, though. [Smile]

Tom, the why? My IE died, and doesn't want to be reborn from its ashes. Firefox is free, easy, and useful.

Oh, and I am famous. Heck, I'm a freakin Legend In My Own Mind.

Why are the good looking always so delusional?

I prefer Opera myself... Suppose I'm not very famous though.

You'd be more famous if you switched to Firefox.

Dan, I had exactly the same problem. Short of reinstalling Windows, I couldn't get IE to work, so I just abandoned it and switched to Firefox.

The reason I picked it was that people here on Hatrack suggested it.

My second personality would use it, but I only let him out on special occasions. He's too roudy.

Nah, I don't use Firefox, and I dang sure don't use IE. I use Flashpeak Slimbrowser. I like it. It's a free tabbed web browser.

I can reread this thread all day.

You had me worried about which problem that was: IE dieing, Delusional, or a Legend in your own mind.

Now for the real question:
About half of the games, videos, and such that I try to load in Firefox don't run. (I get a Quicktime symbol with a questionmark on it) Is this a problem with Firefox, or my settings, or my video card?
