I guess this list shows how stupid Microsoft is ! it is making the world so much harder for us ! I am sick of hacks for IE 6 and 7 in my code.

Let’s face it, MS is not really bothered about making IE any good because that would eliminate the need for their big hope – Silverlight. I think it is about time that we started inserting “Best viewed in Standards Browser” links on our pages.

Microsoft needs to cut the cord with the corporate world (that still use IE6 internally) and get in line with the rest of the world. IE should not be that red, especially with IE8. I’m very disappointed with IE8!

More and more, I’m wondering if in a couple years we don’t see a real segmentation in web apps, where IE users get square corners, static graphics rather than animations, etc. Almost as if IE were a stripped down cell phone browser, while Opera, Chrome, Safari, and Firefox get the full attention of developers.

Great, so basically we’re waiting for IE to die before we can use any of these things. That’s just special.

By the way, Opera 9.5+ also supports text-shadow, not only Opera 10+.

Why is Internet Explorer so red?

Amazing site! I’ve always wondered why such a thing did not exist and was even tempted to create it myself. Glad someone else did the tedious stuff! :D

Hang on…so IE8 suports querySelector() but not getElementsByClassName()…?!

Great list. Shows how uninvolved IE is in HTML5. I’ll probably retire before we might be able to take a serious look at using HTML5, waiting for Internet Explorer 8 to expire.
