when i use the firefox browser then suddenly change to chrome, i would confused where to find the refresh button as they don't have the same location for different features. and firefox itself is quite confusing. the latest version. if i have to see the site i have bookmarked i have difficulty finding it or hard to find the bookmark button when i need to remember some websites. so better stick with one browser and get familiar with all the features and stick with it.

I am using firefox and opera as my browser and they have almost the same location with the menu button. However i am familiar with the two and even with chrome. Regarding with the refresh button, you do not need to find the button from the browser itself. Pressing F5 on your keyboard means refresh and it works on all browsers. Maybe you should memorize keyboard shortcuts for easier navigation.

I guess there's no point in using different browsers at the same time, or even at different times! they are almost the same, excepting for the fact that Chrome is the fastest, and Safari is the cleanest, besides that, you cannot note any difference between one and the other.

I have two browser in my computer and I used both of them. When I surf the net I used firefox which is better to used because of the no script add on. I used chrome if I open my email and do something here in mylot and many other social networking site... So, I am not confused with my browser, my friend

I have the same problem because I need to use several browsers at the same time. The good thing is that they use the same shortcut keys.

I'm actually using four different browsers simply because I have multiple accounts and some browsers have advantages that others don't have. I think it's just a matter of familiarization in order to not get too confused. My main browser is Chrome, though. I like Chrome's speed but the problem with Chrome sometimes is that some websites don't remain logged in which is where Firefox comes in handy.

I use those two browsers too, and I admit it can be confusing sometimes. If I forget that I can use F5 then I keep opening the bookmark on chrome. I usually choose the browser depending on what I want to do at the moment... for me firefox is easier to organize bookmarks, so when I want to do that I just open that browser. All of them have their own advantages.

Just keep on using them, either on which internet browser you want or like to use. The longer you use any of them you will learn a lot more until you find your own proper orderly seamless comfortable routines and work habits. There are no such things as a perfect internet browsers. Each internet browsers has its own pros and cons. I am using regularly just only two internet browsers Safari and Firefox. I don't like to use Chrome but I don't have yet plan to uninstall including other internet browsers such as Opera and Camino.

lol. I guess each of us is different from the other. I am using 4 different browsers. Yeah, I admit, sometimes I get confused but most basic functions such as refreshing are easily done with a press of a button. If you wish to refresh a site just press F5 (Windows, I'm not sure with MAC). As for the bookmark, I don't find it too hard to look for stars within the address bar...So I guess we have our own different opinion on this...

It can be confusing cause if you are new to browsers you are using, it's common that you don't know how it works all in all. You have to be able to use it everyday and study it yourself how it works. For me I use opera cause I have my sites already in the bookmarks area. I am still in doubt at times how to bookmark and see the sites instantly when I open chrome or firefox. It's better to use those you are more comfortable with. But if time comes I want my internet fast, I'd go for other browsers.

I also find out that it is confusing to use which browser to browse internet. I find out that each of them has it's won merits and I uses each of them according to my needs. I find out that chrome is quite safe and fast for during and mozilla is the best for additional plugins for co-activities
