Firefox or Chromium?

I started using the web very early as a middle schooler in the early 90's. I don't remember the first browsers I used when I realized what a "browser" was, but I do remember being in love with Mosaic then Netscape (and always disliking/distrusting Microsoft's browser from the beginning). That love translated into affection for Firefox (I even have two Firefox tshirts). So, as I come to this crux, I have to wonder... Chromium or Firefox? My searching around has found this interesting thread:

Arch Linux Forums / Firefox vs. Chromium - The final verdict: "That's an entirely different thing. Adblock for FF prevents ads from being downloaded, hence makes your web experience faster and less annoying. The 'Adblock' for chromium is just a CSS hack that will hide the ads after they've been downloaded (and sometimes shown for parts of a second which is even more annoying)."

I don't think I could browse the web without Adblock, NoScript and Firebug. They are just exemplary add-ons for any web browsing experience. I didn't realize that Adblock's Chromium extension was limited in such a way, but it makes sense. Plus, would I really like to experience the web via a Google product (even if it is "open") instead of something from the Mozilla group? Reading this fascinating interview of Mozilla's Asa Dotzler doesn't make me lean to Chromium any further, either. So... Firefox or Chromium? It sounds like I've made up my mind towards Firefox (I am a steadfast Thunderbird user, after all), but since I primarily use Apple hardware (Macbook Pro, iPhone, iPad), it's not a black/white issue. However, I do love the thought of using the Firefox/Thunderbird combo for most of what I do.

Web Clip Tool for Backpack

Snip 2 Backpack is a Backpack Bookmarklet that lets you snip text from a webpage and send it directly to your Backpack page as a note. First, create your bookmarklet by typing your Backpack page's email address. Then drag your new bookmarklet to your bookmarks bar. Here's what the end result looks like:

Love this idea... basically a web clipper for Backpack.

As I wrote about last week, I've made the switch from Evernote to Backpack for my workflow inbox/aggregator/containment field/processor.

One of the features of Evernote that I missed when I made this switch is Evernote's fantastic web clipping tool. However, this closes the gap a little bit.

I say a little bit b/c this clipping tool is text only. That solves a good deal of my problems, but I'd still like to see the clipper be able to grab images as well.

BTW, I'm still in love with Backpack's Journal feature.
