This means that to get a new version of the browser you'll have to install a new version of the operating system? Also, what about the Mac version of IE? Again, Web developers never asked to be Microsoft developers, now they think we should be <i>Windows</i> developers.

His point is well-taken. A weblog clearly does not have to order the posts strictly chronologically. If I believed that, then Scripting News would not be a weblog. http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpaaronlandin.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpaaronlandin.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpaaronlandin.html#disqus_thread Sat, 31 May 2003 19:54:43 GMT <a href="http://wmf.editthispage.com/2003/05/31">Wes Felter</a>: "I looked at the WASTE design document and as I suspected the protocol is a piece of junk." http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpwmfeditthis.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpwmfeditthis.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpwmfeditthis.html#disqus_thread Sat, 31 May 2003 20:11:51 GMT <a href="http://blojsim.sourceforge.net/">blogjsim</a> is an instant messaging plug-in for <a href="http://blojsom.sourceforge.net/">blojsom</a>. http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpblojsimsour.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpblojsimsour.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpblojsimsour.html#disqus_thread Sat, 31 May 2003 19:11:30 GMT <a href="http://radio.weblogs.com/0104634/2003/05/31.html#a1939">Ernie the Attorney</a>: "Maybe Jobs is right to factor mortality into his marketing strategy." http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpradioweblog.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpradioweblog.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpradioweblog.html#disqus_thread Sat, 31 May 2003 14:36:44 GMT <a href="http://news.com.com/2100-1041_3-1011563.html?tag=fd_nbs_ptech">News.Com</a>: "When we sense that a person is making an effort to copy the way that we speak, we tend to like that person more, they believed." http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpnewscomcom2.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpnewscomcom2.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpnewscomcom2.html#disqus_thread Sat, 31 May 2003 14:33:57 GMT Jason Shellen has a <a href="http://www.shellen.com/wireless/">wireless photo blog</a>. http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/jasonShellenHasALtaHrefquo.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/jasonShellenHasALtaHrefquo.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/jasonShellenHasALtaHrefquo.html#disqus_thread Sat, 31 May 2003 14:30:25 GMT <a href="http://www.docuverse.com/blog/donpark/2003/05/30.html#a544">Don Park</a>: "CSS heavy web pages on display at CSS Zen Garden look great." http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpwwwdocuvers.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpwwwdocuvers.html http://www.scripting.com/stories/2003/05/31/ltaHrefquothttpwwwdocuvers.html#disqus_thread Sun, 01 Jun 2003 02:23:28 GMT
