Chromium has a huge advantage with the multi-thread processing -each tab is considered it’s own process. And I still say Opera is the lightest desktop browser. It’s also the browser that started me on Linux with it’s multi-platform support. But they’re really focused on mobile and desktops generally have more then enough resources today. I like the Firefox autopager. I use them all.

So Linux use is down? I think we should focus on people who have a commitment, start with that, rather then just trying to go for numbers which I think there’s been some of that and in the long run that poisons the pie. When I moved to Linux -four years ago this week I believe-, I used a new hardware build and a KVM switch. Rather then starting over, it was more of a lateral move. But I was committed to moving after finding out I needed to buy another OEM license to run my new hardware, plus with the whole xbox cooperation proprietary squeeze. Took a year to get it together but I knew what I wanted and it worked great.

For 2012 I say we increase community involvement through using a contribution share ratio with open source type content or community projects. It’s an idea that for me came out of bit torrent use. Feedback is critical and you see that with bit torrent. Same is true with any community collaboration.

Thanks Jeremy. New to the blog today. Thanks all.
