Adios IE6!For many people, deciding on which browser to use seems foreign and unimportant. After all, their computer already came pre-installed with something and they haven't had any problems with it…yet. What they may not consider is how differently websites function and display in each browser unless the site's developers pay close attention to each browser's "laws for compatibility." With Internet leaders like Internet Explorer, Firefox, and Safari, constantly coming out with new versions, it becomes an arduous (and expensive, no less) venture for companies to keep up their website's usability in each browser. Some sites are calling it quits on compatibility with the old browsers for not only security measures but "dog gone it," they're tired. Sites like: Digg, Google, YouTube, Facebook and others are now phasing out support for IE6. Incidentally, IE6 users make up for only about 5% of all Internet users. Still interested? |

 Some Noble leaders took to the road this month. Kelly Elcome participated in Relay for Life, a fundraiser for the Cancer Research Society. Her group raised $2,500 in sponsorships and walked all night for the cause. In the same day, Shannon Hataway ran 50k in the TRT Ultrarun, a race that uses a portion of Tahoe Rim Trail which starts at Spooner Lake. In 7 hours and 38 minutes, she came in 39th overall, 13th in the women’s division, and 7th in her age group. Way to go Kelly and Shannon!
