Days until TheFARM drops support for IE6



We are happy to announce that we will cease to support IE 6 development from Oct 31 2009. We will continue to support our clients’ existing websites but any new development will target Firefox 2+, IE 7+, and Web kit browsers (e.g. Safari, Chrome).

IE 6 was released in Aug 2001, it is 8 years old and 2 more browsers have since been released from Microsoft… it’s about time people stop using this horrible, horrible browser. Other larger players including YouTube have also stated that support for IE 6 will stop. We’re hoping that more agencies will adopt this idea and push for clients to finally make the upgrade or switch to a new browser… it’s 8 years old!

Comments are always welcome!
