It's a funny contest, but not much to get worked up over. Unless the contest grabs the attention of CNN, we're talking about a contest in a relatively small market, and at a bargain for Microsoft.
While it would be nice if every IE user switched to Chrome, better folks download IE8 than plod along with IE6.
Still, I wonder why IE8 is "the only browser capable of cracking all the clues"...
- Jem 17y ago> Unless the contest grabs the attention of CNN, we're talking about a contest in a relatively small market I disagree - it's stuff like this that goes viral. There'll be the people like me who think it's a farce, and then there'll be those who want to try it out, all talking about it. I'd be willing to bet that it'll be a trending topic on twitter within a couple of days.
- aarongough 17y agoPersonally I'd even be willing to help it go viral by forwarding the link to my non-techie friends. At least that way we'll be helping erode the IE6 user-base...
- Jem 17y agoGood point. Are they Australian though? I can't seem to find an equivalent contest in the UK or US. Edit: scratch that, just saw your comment above saying you're Aussie. :)
