Browser Share April 2010

A picture says 1000 words… and from what we can see here, this one is saying that just under 60% of Internet users don’t care about using a browser which is faster, safer or more inline with web standards (e.g. CSS 3). No surprises really; for us it just means that we’ll be keeping IE6 [...]

Market Share of Mac and Windows 2010

There is no charge for awesomeness!

Good thing too. I’d imagine Bill Gates/Steve Ballmer would be lined up outside Centrelink if we got a class action together to compensate us for every lost hour we spent fixing websites for this rediculous browser. However, I did have a client recently point out that it’s our ability to dance with all these different [...]

Test IE6 IE7 and IE8 all on the same computer

I read about this on Ajaxian this morning and thought I’d give it a test run. It’s a program that will allow you test out your websites in all the various different versions of Internet Explorer. It’s still a very early beta which means some things are missing (eg Flash support), but at this stage, [...]
