IE6, AI, and the future of browsing the Web
10 points by OuterVale 1 month ago | 5 comments- xacky 1 month agoChrome is becoming less innovative then other browsers now. They recently rejected adding vertical tabs when most other browsers have adopted them. Chrome is basically becoming a "television" browser where it is aimed at advertisers and not users.

Firefox has to ship more to just catch up to where Chrome is. Whereas Chrome is extremely usable as it is today and they ship tons of minor improvements behind the scenes which make it that. I'd actually be more concerned if Chrome was shipping a bunch of "improvements" as they would be more likely to hurt the user experience than improve it above a certain cadence.

- nearestnabors 1 month agoNew blog, longtime grumpy poster ;) I've learned it's good to put the ideas in a sort of "blog showcase" ("blogcase"?)—kinda like publishing a book—vs dumping them all on one blog that has all my older, face-palm-y writings.
