Web browsers are good, everyone should have one |
|
Yes, well now it seems like everyone is making one; and many users have two or three... Google has launched Chrome http://www.google.com/chrome the latest development in the browser wars... We have IE8 shaping up (currently in beta 2 form) and Firefox 3 now out; and what seemed like a "nice try" by apple to bring Safari to the Windows world... (Thats all of course failing to mention the exploding mobile browser market)
It sure is hard to remember the good old days, when Microsoft crushed netscape and it looked like for better or worse there was only one browser that mattered. All this competition is good, but it leaves the web developers in the middle, trying to support each browsers peculiarities in order to ensure site visitors a consistent experience.
