今天打开邮件的收件箱,发现 Google Apps 发来了一封邮件,内容大概就是说2010年3月1日开始,Docs 和 Sites 两个服务将取消对 IE6 的支持,这说明 Google 已经有封杀 IE6 的兆头了。XP 的长寿带动了 IE6 的长寿,让这个本该早就死亡的浏览器一直活到现在,让人无语。
前些日子有一个 IE NO MORE 活动,可以看出 IE6 已经是很多站长面前痛心疾首的东西。现在 Google 宣布两款服务停止对 IE6 的支持,无疑是万不得已。我现在已经不关注我的网站在 IE6 下面浏览的效果了。今天打开邮件的收件箱,发现一封邮件,原文如下:
Dear Google Apps admin, In order to continue to improve our products and deliver more sophisticated features and performance, we are harnessing some of the latest improvements in web browser technology. This includes faster JavaScript processing and new standards like HTML5. As a result, over the course of 2010, we will be phasing out support for Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 as well as other older browsers that are not supported by their own manufacturers. We plan to begin phasing out support of these older browsers on the Google Docs suite and the Google Sites editor on March 1, 2010. After that point, certain functionality within these applications may have higher latency and may not work correctly in these older browsers. Later in 2010, we will start to phase out support for these browsers for Google Mail and Google Calendar. Google Apps will continue to support Internet Explorer 7.0 and above, Firefox 3.0 and above, Google Chrome 4.0 and above, and Safari 3.0 and above. Starting this week, users on these older browsers will see a message in Google Docs and the Google Sites editor explaining this change and asking them to upgrade their browser. We will also alert you again closer to March 1 to remind you of this change. In 2009, the Google Apps team delivered more than 100 improvements to enhance your product experience. We are aiming to beat that in 2010 and continue to deliver the best and most innovative collaboration products for businesses. Thank you for your continued support! Sincerely, The Google Apps team Email preferences: You have received this mandatory email service announcement to update you about important changes to your Google Apps product or account.

这是个兆头,未来 Google 可能继续封杀 IE6,我也很希望 IE6 能赶紧消失,否则影响互联网的发展了。
我也收到了,封杀了就好,欢呼……
的确值得欢呼啊
