Adios Internet Explorer 6

04.15.09

For some reason the 2001 Space Odyssey scene with the apes seeing this strange “monolith” and the creepy music resonated with me. I think in some ways that many people that use IE6 must feel this way about the internet in general. Very confused and afraid to evolve with the rest of us. So I thought that imagery fit perfectly with how I chose to say Adios to Internet Explorer 6.

Great! I love your blog!

I absolutely love this! Let’s all collectively say goodbye to the cumbersome beast.

I think your epitaph to such a worthless, buggy pile of lazy coding is too generous and thoughtful. A hangman’s noose or the electric chair would be a more fitting end for all the pain and suffering Microsoft have subjected to web designers and users all over the world.

I guess you’re also saying ‘adios’
