ADVERTISEMENTS
I love browsing the web. I also love collecting available web browsers for Mac. Below, there are several well-known web browsers, you should have heard. But I think this topic will be practical for Mac switchers, so I bring this up. Hope you can extract the benefit out of this topic.
Safari
This silver-based browser interface looks very simple. Its pleasing view make it match the simplicity of your Mac. Have high rate performance, built-in finder, built-in artificial intelligence to help you fill in forms, good security, easy to access RSS Feedback and flexible text field. I simply love the layout.
Mozilla Firefox
This browser has lots of add ons, many web tools, and built-in toolbars that can be used. This browser also has great security. I greatly appreciate the security they support.
Opera
Web browser with many products that make you feel more comfortable, like opera for mobile phone and opera for nintendo. Has ability to add more widgets into it, has speed dial feature that help you access your favorite sites faster, and has tools for transferring data. And lots of more special feature inside, IRC chat, graphics, language, security options, and many many of them. This browser features are cool, especially the feature to add widgets.
Shiira
This web browser is able to print web page as PDF file, access special character for Mac, encode text into many of unicodes, and show bookmarks, history, download, page holder, or RSS in sidebar. I like the sidebar.
And also there is a browser called Demeter which is the continuation of Shiira.
Demeter
Netscape
We can manage to see really hot news with this browser and also provide with auto checking for encoded text. It also provide you with capability of restarting the browser. Reading hot stories help me a lot.
The development of Netscape has been officially discontinued. And they come out with SeaMonkey.
SeaMonkey
Flock
Web browser that has good benefit in socialize with people around the world, it has MySpace, MTV, YouTube and it can invite a friend. Also for bloggers, flock save your blog address and you can open it whenever you want. Also has the feature to find popular sites where you can upload photos. This browser is great for making blog.
Camino
Browser released by mozilla enterprise. This browser gives you initial bookmarks for Mac sites. It also has tabs that called 'Mac News Tabs' to open new tabs that contain latest news on Mac. And also has new feature for checking your spelling.
OmniWeb
For this browser, but you only get 30 days trial without license. However, it has many useful products.
iCab
This browser can be viewed in full screen by entering its kiosk mode. But be sure you remember your password, it is needed to leave this mode. When you download this browser, it will appear in extension .sit . I use The Unarchiver to unzip this.
Journler
This is just a Web Kit, enhanced with Safari Browser interface, specially use for taking notes. If you like to take note of as much information as possible for specific web source, use this kit. You can sort your notes by category or classify them by tags. As for the name, very suitable for journalizing.

Any reson, that you're using pictures of old browsers?? F.ex. Firefox2 and Opera 9 (instead of Firefox3 and Opera9.5)

You should probably take Netscape out of there, since it has been discontinued. Good idea for an overview, though. It might be good to add Seamonkey (continuation of Netscape/Mozilla suite) and Demeter (continuation of Shiira) to the list as well?

I'm using Safari as my main browser, it's fast and easy to use. Firefox is for web development (firebug).
