From IE6NoMore:

“We think we can have a huge impact: For those users that are just unaware they are using an old browser (mothers, grandmothers), we’d like to encourage them to upgrade and have a better experience using our sites. For those users in corporate environments, we’d like to start putting pressure on the IT department to upgrade — the more users who complain about seeing the prompts (especially if coming from the top), the more pressure the IT department will have to either upgrade IE 6 or install Firefox side-by-side with IE 6 for compatibility reasons.”

Since when do moms and grandmothers get thrown under the bus for using old browsers? I know we gotta throw IE6 out, but that’s just messed up.

  • Who's getting thrown under the bus. We're merely posting a warning sign on the bus that the trip would be better with another browser here, not picking off the non-compliant.
  • Dude - I'm advertising for the cause of blowing IE6 out. The statement is
    still messed up.
