I'm finding that more and more applications use browsers as their user interface and I am caught in a dilemma.

  • When browsing I want a browser window to have browser buttons, navigation icons, etc.
  • When I'm using the browser for an application like twitter or yammer then I don't need those and having them just reduces the application area. I would rather save the vertical space and have a very sparse undecorated window.

The problem is it does not seem easy to do this. My initial thought was to just install two different browsers. For example use Firefox with all the toolbars and then set IE to show no toolbars. I think this is ok but I would like a cleaner solution. Maybe a plugin in Firefox that turns everything off easily or something.
