I'm Feroze from Chennai. Ive been using Ubuntu for 6 months and am kinda bored as it is very.. um.. n00bish.. I'm game for something more complex like fedora. I'm basically looking for Fedora 11 DVD. But its too large to dload on a 128kbps connection. I couldnt find any Gtalk or Yahoo chat so I'm posting here. Do you use any IM? Hey Sankar,

I tried dillo a few times, meh, it's not GTK either. Same with Opera.

When it is complete, Midori will be the best, but after Epiphany switches to Webkit, I expect it to catch up quickly. If it's not a native GTK app, it doesn't work with gnome-globalmenu, so I avoid it whenever possible. Abiword for Writer, Gnumeric for Spreadsheet, etc. Midori, Epiphany, Firefox, and Safari 4 in WINE here.

For better or worse, I have been rather decisively stuck to Firefox after discovering TreeStyleTabs and (most importantly!) Feedly. I never thought I would be interested in a web-based feed reader (since it defeats the fun of having news feeds on the go), but this thing is just too awesome. Until either Feedly starts working in Epiphany and Chrome, or Liferea starts being like Feedly, I am sufficiently locked in to Firefox. Thankfully, 3.5 is pretty awesome :) I have boatloads of browsers, too. For better or worse, I have been rather decisively stuck to Firefox after discovering TreeStyleTabs and (most importantly!)
