Google Apps Dropping Support for IE 6
The Google Apps team:
In order to continue to improve our products and deliver more sophisticated features and performance, we are harnessing some of the latest improvements in web browser technology. This includes faster JavaScript processing and new standards like HTML5. As a result, over the course of 2010, we will be phasing out support for Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 as well as other older browsers that are not supported by their own manufacturers.
What a wonderful email to start your day with. Well done fellas. The change starts with Google Docs and Google Sites editor on March 1, 2010. Hopefully this means that Google will follow through with all of their consumer products. They are one of the few companies that, by doing nothing more that dropping support for a browser, could seriously affect real usage numbers. That is both incredible and frightening.
