Google Wave Basic Overview
I got my Google Wave invite from a friend about a week ago. There’s a lot of buzz about it on Twitter and the tech sites.
Most people I’ve talked to, though, have no idea what it is. I think that’s mostly because Google released a one hour and twenty minute long video trying to describe [...]
IE6 – My Solution
So my current solution for IE6 is to drop support for it, but not entirely. If I can get something to work in IE6 I will, but I’m not going to avoid using transparent PNG’s or valid CSS. I refuse to let IE6 hold back the internet anymore (as much as I can help it).
