For a long time Internet Explorer has been the browser of choice for many Windows users because it comes pre-installed and supported. That doesn’t mean that it’s the best or that you don’t have any other options, but what you need to know is why you should change at all.

Many years ago IE was considered unsafe to use and didn’t offer the features that its lesser known competitors did. However, times have changed and the gaps aren’t as wide as they once where… but there are still plenty of reasons to switch browsers, some of which are mentioned on Browse Happy.

The website focuses on a few different browsers and explains what features they have over IE such as security, speed and tabbed browsing (the latter available with IE 7) - mainly I think it’s worth visiting just to read the different user experiences as their opinions tend to be less biased than the site is overall.

To finish, it’s a nice website with useful links that’s set out in a clean and simple manner. For those of you with IE and have never experienced anything else, I recommend having a look at Browse Happy to see if there’s anything you’re missing out on.

On a personal note I believe everyone should use whatever they feel the most comfortable with, whether that be Firefox, Opera, or even Internet Explorer. I used to use IE myself but now use a FF based browser that is customized to my needs.
