It was a glorious, wonderful day where the world joined hands in celebration and for just a few minutes there was peace across all nations! Well, not really, but I do remember that day… I was sitting at my desk, like always.

My only complaint is that there are a few typos, you might trying reading it out loud before publishing? Really helps me when proofing.

IT departments do play a major role, but I still believe that the designers and developers who build the internet need to be louder. I believe that the creators need a louder voice and I really think the way to do it is to stop catering to poor decision making. The users are our mouth pieces. Your point about it being easier said then done is very true. We still browser test for IE7 and Opera, and I really wish we didn't. It's more of a conceptual idea vs a realistic practice, but we should all start changing the thinking behind how we design and hopefully users will follow the lead. Powerserve – Good points.

With a major majority of users still using various versions of IE, it's still a business requirement to browser test them all. Even the dreaded IE 6. Informing clients about newer, more secure technologies should be a part of every technology firm, but beating them over the head to upgrade isn't the way to do it. Often times it's not their decision, but their IT department's. Best to inform, then leave it alone. I love the idea, but it’s easier said than done.

But I don't agree that we should completely ignore old browsers. They are still widely used around the world. So they are still very important. But I do like the idea that we need be more aggressive and start getting users to upgrade there browsers. Great article man! But I don’t agree that we should completely ignore old browsers.
