Best Browser Notice Ever
Posted by Damian Damjanovski | Filed under Uncategorized
Big thanks to @pixelette who posted this on her Tumblr.
Probably one of the funniest and most straight-talking Browser Compliance notices I’ve ever seen.
It reads:
Hi, if you are coming to this site via Internet Explorer 6, you might not be getting the best experience possible. Honestly, I can’t even begin to think about what your entire experience on the internet must be like? (…probably like riding a bike on the highway while cars blow by you on their way to Costco to get gallons of mayonnaise and 60-inch plasma TV’s). How will you ever be able to use this website?????? You wont. You’re an asshole and your browser is an asshole. So look, I’m going to be honest: I kind of hate you. BUT we c-a-n make this work. Here is what I am going to need you to do: fire up your Toshiba ShitBook© that weighs about 45 pounds, wipe the Cheeto dust off the screen, download Safari, delete Internet Explorer from your computer, punch yourself in the face, and get me a pulled pork sandwich.

I work in post production and the same thing can be said in regards to Windows Media Player. I'd love to be able to start an online viral campaign to end all .wmv and mpeg1 use and of course IE. I guess i can only dream…

And hopefully HTML5 can bring an end to the overuse of Flash.
