Internet Explorer 9 beta boasts some impressive new features, Firefox 4 is just around the corner with the very cool tab-management feature, Panorama, and Chrome continues to impress with speed, stability, and syncability. We're wondering: Which browser do you prefer?


Competition in the web browser market grows fiercer by the day, and every now and then, we like to check in on your current browser-of-choice to see how use is changing. Last year around this time, Firefox was the overwhelming favorite among Lifehacker readers at 57%, followed by Chrome at 21%—but a lot's changed in the past year, and with the release of Internet Explorer 9 beta and the impending release of Firefox 4, this seems like a good time to check back in.


(Note: We ask "what your current browser of choice is" rather than simply using our web analytics tools to measure what browser you used when you visit Lifehacker because the two aren't necessarily the same.)

If you're conflicted between what we're sure will be the two most popular choices, Chrome and Firefox, our look at whether you should use Firefox or Chrome is a good place to start weighing the pros and cons.


Either way, share why you love your current browser of choice in the comments.
