Google is Now Faster When You Use Firefox
One more reason to switch from IE to Firefox: Google search results load faster in Firefox.
As this Google Blog entry explains, Google is adding special instructions supported by Firefox that will load the first search result in the background while you check out the first page of results. This only happens if Google thinks the first result is so good that a lot of people are going to click on it. So if you search for “stanford” then the first result is going to be www.stanford.edu, and if you’re using Firefox, the stanford homepage will load in the background while you look at the search results page and click on www.stanford.edu. Google and Firefox are 2 or 3 seconds ahead of you.
So go get Firefox!
