Google Asks Users to Drop IE 6
Google is asking IE6 users to download and use either Firefox or its own browser, Chrome . According to TG Daily , IE6 users are greeted with a message prompting them to “get faster Gmail” when logging into their Gmail accounts. The rationale behind the move makes sense. Gone are the days when browsers simply served up web pages. Web browsers are now clients for web applications like Gmail, Google Docs, and numerous other services. To run these applications, browsers must support the latest web technologies and standards. Something IE 6 doesn’t do. If you are still using Internet Explorer 6, do yourself a favor and download Firefox or Google’s Chrome Browser. You'll have a much more enjoyable browsing experience.
