    i can't wait until there is an extension framework so add-ins aren't browser specific
    never happen

    Give it Adblock Plus and I may just start using it more.

    As soon as I can have NoScript and Adblock Plus I'm moving browsers.

    I would certainly consider moving to Chrome more permanently if the relevant addons got moved over. I do like Chrome but up until now the extensions have been holding it back.

    Now all we need is full screen, which might be more difficult.

    say what?

    also if chrome extensions really take off and my requirements are filled by them i would definately move off FF, the core of chrome is much better imo

    I'm curious to see what Google's own reaction to an Adblock-like extension for Chrome would be, since the majority of Google's revenue comes from their ads.
