So I found this site called https://turbo.net/, it seems there are all kinds of goodies for really techie folks which I only play on TV but for me I use the browser compare free tool it offers. It's called Browser sandbox and some of you may not like it because it requires a download to your machine. I know I have become spoiled with all the products in the cloud but this install is simple free and once it's all done you really get a complete picture of what your site, page or post looks like in virtually <- pun intended, every browser.

So once you download and install the shell you will then download image installs of each of the browsers you would like to check. You only have to do this once and then you will have it locally for every check the next time around.

So for instance I wanted to check what my site looked like on Firefox Base so I download the image, once it's local I can check it again and again with whatever URL I choose.

Now I know what you are thinking, why not just install the 4 or 5 main browsers and check them all manually, which is basically what I am doing here. Good point and certainly for most of us that would suffice but I told you I play a techie on TV so I have to finish my part and give you the rest of the story.

Not only does turbo.net / browser sandbox give you access to all the popular browsers but they give you access to multiple versions as well which gives you a vast array of browsers to check to make sure your stuff is showing up nicely all over the Internet.

Can you dig it,
