If Safari were a missionary it sounds like we would be converts to the church of the Apple browser…
The beta of Apple’s Safari 4 was released a couple of days ago, and because I have an almost psychotic compulsion to install free software, I downloaded it and gave it a spin. The press release boasted [...]

A number of browser manufactures apparently look to the Opera browser when seeking inspiration for their products writes Dustin Wilson.
Throughout the years Opera’s competition has released versions of their browsers with “new” features which are typically touted as innovations they did themselves, especially by Apple. Mozilla to its defense rarely (if ever to my [...]

One suggestion is to hide stylesheets from IE6, which would result in a “bare bones” non styled, though mostly functional version of a website being served to IE6 users.
Remember how we used to do something similar to Netscape 4 back in the day?
Some great discussions accompanies Dan’s post.

Dear IE 6, it pains me so to write…
Dear IE 6, It’s been a good run, now please leave.

It’s about five years since I started using Firefox, so in a way this is news that’s been a long time coming. Of course Firefox hasn’t had the advantage of being the default browser that has shipped with every PC that has been sold in the last ten years or so.

And so Microsoft made their own web browser, which they called Internet Explorer, hoping for it to be a “Netscape Killer”. And Internet Explorer supported frames, and yet was not Mozilla, and so was not [...]

While it’s early days yet, a quick look at browser usage stats shows Google’s Chrome browser appears to have dented Firefox market share rather than that of Internet Explorer.
Industry feeling is Chrome was intended to compete with the Microsoft browser, rather than Firefox or Opera, et al.
You live by the early adopters, you die by [...]

I have a confession to make. I have not yet downloaded and installed Google’s Chrome browser. Shame on me.
I’ve been tuning into the excited babble coming out of various discussions forums and Twitter in recent days, but I still can’t motivate myself to “make the switch”.
I realise that this stance places my reputation as an [...]

Jeffrey Zeldman asks: how will the Google browser, Chrome, compete with other, better established alternatives? In other words, how will web users be enticed to make the switch to Chrome?
By offering a fast and responsive user experience? Or possibly some yet to be seen bells and whistles that can only be brought about by way [...]
