Yes, I know that cats live longer, but I think the quip I made at DemoCamp 21 still makes a good point:
Let’s upgrade to compliant up-to-date browsers, shall we? IE8, or even that hippie browser, if you must.
Credit where credit is due: The “cat’s dead now” line is my remix of a line from a review of the Guns ‘N’ Roses concert that took place here in Toronto a couple of years back. The original line went something like “If you got a cat when Appetite for Destruction came out, it’s dead now.”

I’ve always laughed at how the guys on the Internet Explorer 8 team bent over backwards trying to come up with non-porn-surfing uses for “InPrivate Browsing”, which I often refer to as “Porn Mode”. Somehow the examples they use, however practical and legitimate they are, fail to convince:
- “I want to buy a present for my wife from an online store and want to keep it a surprise.”
- “I want to check my account balance from an internet cafe while I’m on holiday.”
But this Post Secret postcard shows a believable use case for “Porn Mode” on browsers:
