<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I have used DuckDuckGo and Ixquick for
quite some years now. I try to encourage otehrs to use it too,
they don't confine you to results that the computer "thinks" you
will like.<br>
I think DuckDuckGo is especially nice with the whole ! (bang)
searching. I use that an incredible amount. You can search the
ubuntuforums with !askubuntu <String> or askubuntu with
!askubuntu <String><br>
There are tons of sites<br>

And there are tons of other goodies too...<br>

I think it is a superior search experience, though sometimes I use
ixquick if I can't find what I am looking for. It is nice having
2 to get different results, though in the past year ddg has gotten
a lot better results.<br>

<div>I have been using QupZilla daily on both of my Lubuntu
netbooks instead of FF. For daily use, it works great, it
is sooo much faster and with a great deal of
functionality. My only observation is the limited number
of plug ins at this time. Otherwise, I really like it and
hope it continues to mature<br>
<br>
</div>
@Israel - Thanks for all the input on Qupzilla. I really
like it and with further maturation will prove to be a very
good lightweight browser. You may wish to reconsider
Duckduckgo and use startpage or Ixquick ( both related to
each other) if privacy is a concern or desire. If you have
the time you may wish to read this about Duckduckgo:<br>

</div>
Yeah. I can even watch Amazon on it (with libhal, of
course). I have<br>
click to play enabled. Of course you must install flash
separately, it<br>
isn't like Chrome (as far as I know). Though it is WebKit,
so it might<br>
be able to support Pepper, and use those plugins... though
Chromium<br>
doesn't... so anyhow.... You can do all the normal stuff on
it. (Or at<br>
least all the normal stuff I have tried). It saves
passwords, and has<br>
excellent privacy management features. And as a plus it
includes<br>
Duckduckgo as a search engine!!<br>
I haven't tried to open flash games, or anything like that,
though.<br>
