For those of you who know me, I strongly dislike Internet Explorer. I have been using Mozilla for almost a year and haven’t looked back. There are a few, ok, more like a lot of people who are hopelessly shackled to IE. There are plenty of good reasons to switch from IE and almost no good reasons to stay. D. Keith Robinson has written a very good article on switching to Mozilla. It goes through the basics like what is Mozilla and why it is better than IE. It also comments on the fact that Mozilla is constantly improving and that the IE we have now, will be with us until 2005.

What I mean by that is that it’s being worked on as we speak and will continue to improve as time goes on. For those of you who don’t know, as of a few months ago, Microsoft pulled the plug on Internet Explorer, so there won’t be any updates to that browser for the time being, and Netscape is dead….To get an updated version of Internet Explorer you might very well have to pay for it. In 2005. See what I mean?

I hope people take the time to read the article and even take the time to try out Mozilla. It takes awhile to get used to using something other than IE, but once people see the benefits, they’ll kick IE to the curb.
