IE6 and Cross Browser Layout

While I was creating a new design for my blog I was stuck when I had to check if the new layout looks good in Internet Explorer 6. For my previous designs I was able to use Multiple IEs, a software that let’s you install multiple versions of IE, to check if the layouts look good in Internet Explorer 6 but since I switched to Windows Vista I cannot run IE6 because of some kernel changes.

The only solution to run IE6 on Vista is to install a virtual machine and run Internet Explorer 6 there but I that takes time and time is precious. After asking some friends to check my blog in IE6 I found out that there are some problems.

Now I have a dilemma, should I bother myself to install a virtual machine and then run XP and IE6 from there or should I forget about IE6 which is still used on a small scale. I analyzed the percentage of visitors that use IE6 to visit my blog and it seems is not such a small percent, about 18% of my visitors use IE6.

Since there is no way that I switch to XP again I’ll leave my blog with the “bad” look in IE6 until I will find a reasonable solution for that and for the visitors that use IE6 I strongly recommend to use Firefox.

smusi.com / new proxy lists

I’ve just finished working at smusi.com and now it’s up and working. Smusi.com it’s a proxy web site where proxies are listed by different categories and tags.

Users can find new proxies or proxies that are working with different web sites, faster and without checking all the proxies in the list. The design of the site is pretty light and it has good usability.

Visitors can also rate the proxies that they liked so other people can find good proxies fast. New proxies will be posted daily and also will be sent by email to the users that signed up with smusi proxy newsletter.

Proxy owners can submit proxies to smusi.com for free, without a link back required and the listing will appear on the site instantly.

I have decided to add new features to smusi.com on a regular basis so the site will give to the visitors exactly what they are looking for so if you have any ideas or comments about smusi.com I am waiting for them.

EDIT: smusi.com has been sold and has been transformed into an adult blog.

Grab your ymail.com email

Yahoo has officially opened registrations for the domain ymail.com & rocketmail.com so know users of Yahoo can sign up with ymail.com or rocketmail.com domains.

This step was done because of the big numbers of users registered at Yahoo and because new users that were trying to register couldn’t find appropriate user names.

If you still didn’t registered a ymail.com username you should hurry up and grab a short name to use on your Yahoo Mail or Yahoo Messenger.

More on the official Yahoo Mail Blog.
