Martin has just a blog carnival about Web browser is started. As I leave out any opportunity to pay homage to my favorite browser Opera, I'll do it at this point. Here are my answers to his questions.
1st Which browser do you use?
Opera as a browser, Opera as an email client, news reader and Opera as Opera as Bittorrent client. And if not Opera, then Firefox. Because everything is better than Internet Explorer.
2nd Your Home?
I start with a blank page.
3rd Do you have toolbars installed?
no
4th What add-ons are installed and active?
Add-ons I have for Firefox. Since it is the Web Developer, Firebug and Selenium for Web development.
5th Do you use the default theme?
Only for Firefox (iFox), the Opera is beautiful enough 
6th Place shortly before any extension, which seems particularly useful and important to you!
For Opera I do not need extensions. He is the "fastest browser in the world", is completely controlled via the keyboard goes (but also to mouse gestures) and sets the tab browsing is best at and that under any operating system. I do not need for daily work.
The add-ons for Firefox, I've listed above and they are really very useful for Web development.

As I just now at blog-parade.de would have read iKA know what blog community as a Mail User Agent (MUA) uses the.
This is a nice occasion once again sing the praises of my "Norwegian IT knife to 'the Opera.
The main advantages for me is that he really cope with many emails and they will not know how Outlook saves in a single file but in the popular Unix mbox format. Since I both Windows (office), Linux (official and private) and soon with MacOs (private) work, I can platform independent access my mails. This divorce from all Microsoft products. In addition, Outlook comes with a mail Storm cope very badly. Anyone who has ever experienced this and was due to the shortcomings of Outlook for 2 days to pick up any mail that the mail had been reduced to the Admin account on the mail server, like the surrender of the additional components such as calendar or task management.
So now I have enough cursed Outlook. Here in brief are the pros and cons of Opera Mail.
Benefits
- Cross-platform, mails in the same format on Windows, Linux and MacOS
- can handle large amounts of mail and does not manage them in one large file
- the mail can be extensive filters (also with regular expressions set), so that the mail only once physically exists, but it turns up in multiple virtual folders
- gets along with both POP3 and IMAP
- Mails can be determined with contacts, find labels or the nature of attachments very quickly
- High Performance
- Perfect integration in my favorite browser
- not to forget news feeds and mailing lists are supported
Disadvantages
- The search function could be more comfortable
- missing component calendar and task management, but that does not belong to the primary functions of a mail client

Benedict has a general blog survey started in the processing of information overload, it is about.
Quote:
In this age of cell phones, telephones, TV, computer, etc. increases the supply of information of any kind whether classical through newspaper and the 20 clock news, or the modern RSS-reader, each uses the information it needs.
But how exactly the individual is finished? You should inform yourself so you can form an opinion and get involved in discussions actively. [...]
The questions in detail:
- How do you cope with the increasing flood of information, and will inform you regularly about you at all the news from around the world?
I use the treatment by "respectable" media to give me an overview. - If so, how? What medium are you referring to the latest news?
For the messages from all over the world, I use more traditional media like radio and TV but not daily. Messages that relate to IT - the world I refer from the Internet. The newsreader is indispensable. - Which messages are important to you? what can you live without?
Important to me is news from around the world, especially the IT world, so I can earn my money. I can do without documentation on soaps. - How long do you spend per day to study it news?
Ca. 1 hour, while radio and podcasts are not included with, as you can consume it in passing. - Why did you stay up to date so important and what, if you want to be kept informed, brings you this?
I am a curious person, even if I deny the times. Information is knowledge and I am a broad-based knowledge is very important. - In which age and interest group you would you assign?
felt before age = current age - 10 years, which I still count a few years with the under 30 years of addiction to computers.
