I use StatCounter religiously now, after being a SiteMeter girl for years. Wait, I haven't been blogging for years. Well, StatCounter is the way to go and I expect to see the following point added to your post: StatCounter has just rolled out the function of tracking Exit Links. This is incredibly valuable if you want an easy way of seeing if your readers are actually clicking on all of those blogs and services you link to. I can now say, with certainty, that if I link to you, at least 10% of my readers will click on that link, which is actually pretty good. Also, although I swear by Firefox, a good way to help a slow-loading blog that you refuse to clean up by way of uncluttered sidebars, is to put your content in the far left column. That way, while all of those IE losers are loading your blog, they can at least read your post while your sidebar full of blog bling loads. Um, Jennifer, did you invite me to contribute to this Q&A? Because I just did. Megan {Velveteen Mind}'s lastest post..Blog Nosh Magazine is... doing big stuff you don't want to miss!

You are soooo my blogging guru! Everytime I have a question about formatting on my blog, I totally come to your blog to check it out and I usually find my answer! In the Trenches of Mommyhood's lastest post..Sarah's Olympic Opinion

OMG. I've been hanging onto IE forever, and I switched to Firefox yesterday and I don't know why I ever resisted. SO MUCH BETTER! Devan's lastest post..What in the world?!

I seriously don’t know how people function with IE anymore. Firefox has so many great add-ons and functions that internet browsing has changed dramatically.

And stat counters? I really am beginning to hate them. I think I have about four different versions at the moment – trying to decipher which to keep, but they all give different numbers. It’s very confusing.

Excellent series Jennifer. I heart you!

I had Mozilla Firefox on my old laptop, and loved it (most of the time) although either from issues with my lappy or with my internetz, I got those funky ‘error’ messages a LOT. Since getting my Macbook, I’ve loved Safari and have never gotten an error message.

Per your usual awesomeness, BTSP rocked. I love the idea of the Q&A!
Thanks for the coding for buttons-I’ve been copying other people’s codes (from the codes on their buttons) but it’s nice to have my very own template

Thanks Jennifer!

If you are self-hosted, you don't need to upload your photos to flickr or photobucket. You can store them on your site. I like to do this to keep my flickr account clean. I won't switch from IE, but I have my own freakish personal reasons that have nothing to do with either browser. I wish I wasn't so freaky. Another fabulous entry!

people still use IE? get out of the cave people! Just kidding, but Firefox is way better. Giveaways, I do them all the time, I think they are fun. No strings attached giveaways are the best. DesignHER Momma's lastest post..To facebook or not to facebook...
