Hi John, oh I just use to search the web and if I forgot to mention voiceover 
then I am using that for Google Crome. 
I don't use Chromevox plugin can you explain what this is and what it does? 
That's interesting, are you referring to Safari 5.1.4? If so, I haven't 
downloaded it 1 because I was worried that it might brake something with VO and 
2 I didn't see anything about accessibility improvements so didn't think it was 
worth it at least for now. However if this is the version your talking about, 
then I may re-consider my thoughts and go and download it. 

Thanks for sharing your web browser thoughts.
