I don’t want to over do it with the “polls” here; I believe they could become an annoyance quite quickly if overused.
Since most (if not all) of us here are involved in web development, at least to some degree anyway, I think a graphical view of what some of us here consider to be our favorite browser might be interesting, if not valuable, information.
Considering developmental the nature of our members, I don’t expect that this poll is going to be representative of what the average surfer is using, but interesting nonetheless. I also realize that for developmental purposes, many of you use multiple browsers and keep older versions on hand for testing purposes. Personally, I use IE6, Mozilla 1.0, Amaya 6.1, and NN4.7 (when my other comp is not on the fritz
). Mozilla is probably my favorite from a developer’s standpoint (FYI link: Known bugs in the Mozilla DOM). Amaya is nice as well and allows quick previewing or, for example, how a particular graphic would look on a page.
For the sake of this poll, please vote for the browser you use most often, preferably the one you use when you’re surfing the net for recreation, as opposed to when your testing or developing.
In the thread, you might list what other browsers you use, what you are anticipating in a future release, what you’d like to see in future releases, and any thing else you feel is relevant to a discussion on browsers. What is the browser share of your visitors according to you site logs? How far back in the legacy browser tree do you currently account for when designing?
Any relevant feedback, links, resources, etc. welcomed. Hopefully, between the poll and the comments, this thread will generate some tidbits of information all of us might find useful to some degree

. I used to be a diehard NN user, but right now IE 6 comes in a close second behind Mozilla.
) and see a couple others have indicated Mozilla as well.
) all it needs is a little more time to work out a few more of the rough edges.
