What are you waiting for? Get Firefox already.

If you're still using Internet Explorer to view the web, you're missing out. Aside from security risks inherent in the inferior Micro$oft product, you aren't seeing half of what's out there. Trouble accessing a website? Graphics don't seem to appear as they should? Then you're using a browser that is severely outdated and outmoded. Unfortunately, Internet Explorer 5.x and 6.x just don't support modern web standards as they should.You've been seeing this "Get Firefox" button here, there and everywhere (or at least now you will, since I've pointed it out to you). This is not some tricky ad campaign designed to give you a computer virus or get you to send your bank account information to some distant relative in a third-world country, and it's not going to sign you up for free p0rn in your mailbox.
It's just the best internet browser on the planet. Period.
And you're hearing this from someone you know (unless you've randomly found my website and are wondering who this Blair Willis entity is). AND IT'S NOT EVEN AN APPLE PRODUCT. (Gasp! Blair is recommending something not made by Apple Computer? ...cue angelic chorus...)
Actually, I'm just tired of answering tech support questions from people that "can't access such-and-such website" or "can't see the pictures" or "what video?" or "where's the menu?" blah blah blah.
Get it now. Got it? Good.
In our next installment, we'll discuss why AOL is still sucking money from your pocket.
