Great balls of Firefox

According to ga.Statcounter.com, as of 12/24/09 Firefox browser has out foxed I.E. or what some people call big brother. This is party time. now, how do we get the remained of the IE6 and old users to upgrade to a current browser, before I retire for the web game.

Side Note: has anyone from the rumor mill about Apple’s ISlate. it is the rumored name for the Apple’s soon to be announced mac table in sometime late Jan 2010? I would guess that it will be the next must have product of 2010. I just hoping for a AppleTv with a 2TB hard drive, because my present AppleTv is so full that I have got to keep move my videos out of it to watch a new release.

Microsoft’s next step – I.E. 9

I was just watching CNN. Below on the ticker scrolled Microsoft fights back with it next Browser I.E.9.  WHAT???????

Yes, I said it, but what the hell? Hey, anytime a company as big as Microsoft make any moves to correct itself, it is big news. Microsoft is starting to talk about I.E.9 .

I was more than surprised. First, how does CNN know about this, before me? I.E. 8 just got released.  I ran to Google.  These are the links that I found.

I would love to think I.E. 9 will be the next best web standards browser, because they sure could do better than I.E.6. If they want to? How can they get the IE6 Fans to finally drop I.E.6? It is truly starting to hurt them.
