Chrome vs Midori

,----[ Quote ]
| CelticKane has designed and provided a 
| Javascript test, which I ran both browsers 
| through. The results? Midori beat out Chrome 
| in all but 3 categories, some by huge 
| margins. Chrome scored a 388, Midori a 441. 
| I ran this test a whole bunch more times, 
| closing all the tabs, going over and over. 
| Midori kicked the crap out of Chrome every 
| single time, without fail. If you want to 
| take a look at his test, click that link up 
| there, and I think it pretty well explains 
| itself.

| Firefox as your primary browser. There are a 
| few handy Firefox extensions that can beef 
| up your favorite browser's privacy features. 
| Here are my three personal favorites.
