Is it finally time to ditch IE6?

From M. Dave Auayan at IE Death March:

Internet Explorer 6 will be SEVEN years old on August 27th. It came out a few weeks before the Twin Towers fell. It came out before the Nintendo GameCube. It came out before the first iPod.

It’s time to put a deadline on dropping IE6, and I say that time is now, and the deadline should be soon… say like, March 2009. That’s roughly a little more than 6 months. Feel free to join me.

New series of articles on The Web Squeeze

That’s right! Wednesday will be know as the Wednesday Font Round-up day now on The Web Squeeze! Looking for fonts to go on a certain is always really fun … well… for me it is. I seem to get creative all of a sudden when I see a really cool one! That’s how the last 2 wallpapers came about. So I’m regularly checking out DaFont.com to see what new font’s been added to the site.

So this week we decided to start a new series that will be posted every Wednesday. It will showcase fonts and dingbats, most of them free but it might happen that we’ll put up a paying one that you just can’t get by!

So be on the look out! The August 20th, 2008 installment is up so go have a look. Let us know if you found some really cool fonts that inspired you to do something!

2 new wallpers added today

A burst of creativity today made open up Photoshop and create these 2 wallpapers. Both have that “retro” feel which I seem to be into lately.
