Just Stupid: DIGG Endorses Internet Explorer 8 |
This has got to be one of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen. There are a lot of people hitting Digg everyday [a lot of them smart] and just about all them using something other than Internet Explorer.
Every IT Administrator/Consultant and web developers all over the world is trying to avoid Internet Explorer like a plague. They freakin’ hate it.
There are so many article about the issues with Internet Explorer. And the fact Internet Explorer performance can’t compete with open source browsers and how a chrome plug-in can out perform the base install of Internet Explorer.
Face it, if your using Internet Explorer 8 right now, your using a browser that’s equivalent to Windows 3.11
I mean how much money did DIGG get for putting this crap graphic on their main page?
I’d like to see that law right now, the one about disclosure and how much, or what did you get, to endorse this product. I’ll betcha’ that just paid for their bandwidth for this year.
This is a screenshot of what it says… It was in the bottom right corner, below everything- I guess hoping no one would see it. Like advertising used condoms for sale.
Lets just pander to who ever will hand out some money, regardless if it’s a proper moral decision or not.
Comon’ go with Chrome, Firefox, Opera or something else, but gheeze, what a cop-out.
The stock in DIGG must be dropping over there, cause when I saw this I just busted out laughing and couldn’t help thinking ‘…damn Digg, your pandering.’
Oh well.. ain’t my house- ain’t my yard.
You just see some of the strangest things on the Internet, and in some places, you don’t expect.
Thanks for reading!
Thanks,
