Get A Better Browser

Internet Explorer is the devilLike most (if not all) web developers, I have a loathing for Internet Explorer but the hatred runs especially deep for IE6. IE6 came out in 2001 (over 10 years ago), which is an eternity in technology time. Believe it or not, people, businesses, and organizations are still using IE6. The unpaid hours that I have spent trying to make sites work in Internet Explorer 6 are countless. Bill Gates owes us for making his crap look good. I'll stop ranting now and just get to the point...

IF YOU ARE USING IE6...STOP! JUST STOP! It's time to let go.

Web Link Mozilla Firefox

Check out Firefox -- it's the award-winning Web browser from Mozilla. It's made by thousands of volunteers worldwide who want to make a better and safer Web experience for everybody!

Here are a few reasons why I recommend Firefox:

    • It's easy to use and blazing fast!
    • It's safer with built-in phishing and malware protection to warn you of bad sites.
    • It has cool features like tabs and the "awesomebar."
    • You can customize it to do all sorts of things like listen to music or keep up with Twitter or Facebook directly from your browser. You can even change its color!
    • And, best of all...it's free!

Switching is easy and painless -- Firefox will import your bookmarks from your old browser. Don't just take my word for it...try it out for yourself!
