For those who remember, I’ve switched from Opera to Firefox a while ago. I like the way Firefox gives you the ability to extend the browser to your liking. But Firefox didn’t give me the right base. I want a simple browser that in itself does virtually nothing but browse and can be extended through plugins. And then Uzbl came around the corner.
Uzbl is a project that aims to be a browser that follows the UNIX Philosophy, and I like it. On top of that, it’s real easy to extend the browser using scripts. Uzbl is built on top of Webkit, so it is standards compliant and it passes the acid3 test with flying colors. Off course, it is still alpha/beta so it’s not ultra stable but stable enough for me. And have I mentioned it is way lighter then Firefox? It starts in a snap and it uses a lot less memory.
My config can be found here and my scripts can be found here. Let me know if you have suggestions for my scripts!
