I like firefox. But as of late, this thing has been literally sucking system resources. I listen to internet radio every time I have FF open so while I'm here I'm listening, well in about 30 mins. I'm at ~100mb of ram taken and rising. I tried Opera and the UI is like FF but I didn't actually use it long enough to get used to it. Should I use Chrome, Opera, or FF Namaroka 3.6 Alpha 1?

What operating system are you using? How much "ram" do you have installed?

Firefox 3.6 can detect computer orientation.
The next iteration of Firefox, version 3.6, will be able to detect the orientation of laptops and mobile devices that come loaded with accelerometers. Mozilla evangelist Christopher Blizzard announced the new feature on a blog post yesterday and offered a short video of the technology in action.

I have a choice. I have I.E.8, Firefox3 and Opera on this laptop. Is it even a good idea to have 3 on one computer?

Mozilla: Future Firefox Will Be You-Centric.
In just a matter of years, Firefox has risen to become the number 2 browser on the market, even in the context of Microsoft’s Windows monopoly. But while the focus on the Internet/Cloud continues to increase, the relevance and importance of browsers in end user scenarios becomes critical. Mozilla, just as other browser developers, is foraying into the future of browsing, and reveals that the browsers will need to evolve in order to become user-centric, you-centric, more specifically.
