Browsers. Who uses what and why?

by

I came across a good post on the Apple Blog today about saving time in Safari, and it got me wondering about browsers. Although I am a big fan of Safari 3 and believe it is much improved over the previous versions, there are still some compatibility issues with Java and application intensive sites that prevent me from using it all the time. Salesforce.com, StumbleUpon are not friendly, and other great toolbar add-ons, such as del.icio.us, do not work in Safari. Firefox is then my de facto backup. However, I’ve been trying out Camino lately and love the fact that it is basically a combination of Safari and Firefox - speedy, great bookmark management, and elegant looking. So, what are you using and why? What sites and or apps does Safari not work with that keep you from using Apple’s browser?
