As for the efficiency--again, it probably depends on the "mode" I am in (mouse is easier for plain surfing) Besides plain, what other kind of surfing is there?

Besides plain, what other kind of surfing is there?
Or are you talking about the differences between using those keyboard-only WMs and normal ones?
As far as I know, using only the keyboard for some task is usually about efficiency gains, but in the case of surfing, I'm obviously not sure there's much to be gained, compared to mouse gestures.
On the other hand, if using only the keyboard is some kind of personal preference, that may leave something to be desired in other areas too.. Such as, a mouse :p

Or looking up some piece of information while I am typing a reply to a HN comment :) On the other hand, it's an overkill for me to keep both my hands on the keyboard while I am reading a nytimes story or following links at leisure.
