Last week I wrote about an IE6 battle featuring Litmus and PushUp. It’s a war that divides the web with very valid arguments on both sides. Should we continue supporting the out-dated IE6 browser..? Or should we drop IE6 support and turn the onus of “updatedness” from web designers to Internet users..?

As it stands, web designers and developers are forced to spend time and money to ensure websites work properly inside IE6. Hello people, and corporates, IE6 was outdated more than 2 years ago for the improved (and free) IE7. So why won’t you upgrade..?

After reading adii’s IE6 support delima, I can see the time is coming; IE6, your days are numbered. The fact that high profile web wizards like adii are even suggesting a total drop of support for IE6, could kick start a global revolution for the immediate end to all IE6 support.

And how cool would be..?

The little people, we small time designers & developers who spend our time and money fixing Microsoft poor workmanship, revolting on a global scale, to speed up the inevitable end of a browser that’s way past its expiry date.

We should do it.
Someone start something.  (or has someone already..?)
Spread the word from here.  (digg, reddit & sphinn this story)
Something will happen.  (and we can all rejoice)

RIP IE6.  (that could be our campaign name..?)
