Microsoft promotes IE 8, albeit strangely

I’m no fan of Microsoft, but I will give them credit when it is due. First of all, they gave Dean Cain a job, and second, they are trying to convince the luddites still using IE 6 (or gasp, older) to upgrade to IE 8.

While I would rather people ditch IE altogether, I’m a realist and understand that many people will stick with whatever piece of crap Microsoft shoves down their gullet. And IE 8 is a lot less crappier than IE 6 or 7, so I’m all for this. Go ahead Microsoft, knock yourself out.
