OT: I use ClickToFlash (I think you use it too) and I've never had a problem with it not blocking Flash or being out of date compared to the version of Flash used. CTF has been wonderful, and if you have auto-updating turned on on Safari's extension prefs, it automatically updates itself too. If you've had a different experience I'd like to know. Otherwise I think you're going to a lot of extra trouble to play videos when Safari handles them just fine. The only think Chrome does slightly better than Safari is in page rendering speed, otherwise it's crap. Exactly. And no need to talk about IE. Only people like zax use that POS.

> I think you're going to a lot of extra trouble to play videos when Safari handles them just fine I use a 2.8 GHz Quad Core i7 iMac with Snow Leopard and the latest version of Safari. Chrome smokes Safari playing flash videos. No comparison. I load a page with a flash or html 5 video on Safari and while it loads I copy the URL open Chrome, paste and go and Chrome still beats Safari - Faster Smoother (less hiccups) and at youtube you can watch the videos in two sizes Seriously I hate the fragmentation of the web, but realistically when I'm watching videos I use Chrome. When I'm browsing craigs I use firefox because with snap-links I can drag and open as many tabs as I want with one drag and click.
