   I like Firefox, but for the past couple years I've been using Google Chrome   
   most often.  Although there are things about Chrome I don't like (most notably   
   its UI), Chrome is noticeably faster, and I like that.  Regarding updates,   
   Chrome seems to do its updates totally behind the scenes without notifying you   
   (which is another thing I don't really like about Chrome - I like to know when   
   I'm getting updates so that I'm not totally surprised when something suddenly   
   changes).   
      
   I really like Firefox, but sadly, Firefox became fairly slow, and I think   
   Firefox's UI is starting to degrade as well - A couple years ago, they added   
   that "Firefox button" at the top of the browser, but thankfully you can revert   
   it back to a more traditional interface with the menu bar.  More recently,   
   they removed one of my favorite features, the ability to hide the tab bar when   
   you have only one tab open.  I don't know what else they might change in the   
   future..
