Do you always expand your browser?

I've gotten into the habbit of having my browser take up about half the screen, so I can work on other things at the same time. I used to leave it fullscreen. How do you guys and gals manage your surfing?

Always about half screen here (1280x960 on a 19" crt), I should go dual monitor soon I think.

Not quite full screen, but it fills most of it. If I need to do something else, I minimize.

i can't stand full screen myself... too much blank space on every page. most pages are designed for 800x600, and i'm running 1600x1200. i usually set it so the page area is about 1024x768.

My browser window usually takes up most of the screen, I'd say about a 1100x800 sized window on a 1600x1200 desktop. I have it set to open all detected browser windows on my 2nd virtual desktop, so if I need to do something else I just switch to another desktop. My 2nd desktop is purely for browsing and downloads.

yeah 1600X1200 pwn all your small desktops, i keep my web pages at about 800X600

ugh, just full screened this page, and most of your posts don't even go beyond 1/3 of the monitor. 2/3 of the screen with just gray spots is not cool

I always have it full screen.

But hey, that's what having multiple monitors is all about. :D
