WellSpyder Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 I dont see anyone citing a study showing whateverbrowser makes one richer/smarter/better bridge player.Perhaps we should have another poll in which we ask people both what browser they use and how good a bridge player they are, and then correlate the results? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike777 Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Perhaps we should have another poll in which we ask people both what browser they use and how good a bridge player they are, and then correlate the results? :) I see you love to waste time.....noted..... I am not shocked...people love to waste time at work esp if they are on salary... When I worked on a salary ....I figure 90% or more wasted most of day........as they study this issue or others....waste of time.... --- They love to waste time...study issues....but never grow business.....no.

kenberg Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Maybe we could have a team match, safari versus firefox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semeai Posted August 4, 2011 Report Share Posted August 4, 2011 Maybe we could have a team match, safari versus firefox. Clearly it should be a 6-team round robin first, then a playoff of the top two! We'd need to wait for the last three options in the poll to have at least four votes, though.

matmat Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 They love to waste time...study issues....but never grow business.....no. Perhaps we should make a study of how effectively people waste time at their salaried work vs. what browser they use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoetze Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 There has been a study about IQ and browser usage here: So why didn't you include Camino as a poll option? :P I actually used Camino for a short while, but have long since switched back to Opera (and soon thereafter back to Linux). I also use Iceweasel (a rebranded Firefox) for some things like BBO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMB1 Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 There has been a study about IQ and browser usage here:See the paper But there hasn't been a study: the paper and press release are a hoax. The BBC reported the results, despite being told the whole story was unsound, and only retracted when the perpetrators admitted it was a hoax. This lamentable behaviour was reported on More or Less.

dicklont Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 At home Firefox but for remote working I must log in with IE.At work IE. I like FF but I don't know why so many dislike IE. For me it's just another browser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Probably because it frequently doesn't work as well as other browsers. E.g. http://www.bridgebase.com/forums/topic/47415-forum-hand-diagram/page__view__getnewpost Also, many people just have a general bias against anything Microsoft.

diana_eva Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 (edited) IE doesn't handle multiple tabs well. At least on my computer it crashes frequently when i try to open 2+ tabs Edited August 9, 2011 by diana_eva Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy69A Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Perhaps we need another poll on how gullible users of each browser are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bbradley62 Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 What is a browser and why should I waste any time caring? I dont see anyone citing a study showing whateverbrowser makes one richer/smarter/better bridge player.That's why this thread is in The Water Cooler.
