Most web designers like myself have a particular dislike of Internet Explorer, but there is one thing we hate just a little bit more these days and that is outdated web browsers.<\/p>\n<p>Have a heart and band together to save Web Designers \u2013 give life back to the Web Ou!<\/p>\n<p>Why? Outdated web browsers hinder productivity, force us to write additional unnecessary code to accommodate these browsers and reduce the overall creativity we like to implement.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the reasons I mentioned above, one of the top reasons you SHOULD upgrade your web browser is for security reasons. Every time a new version of a web browser is released, its primary purpose is usually to fix security holes and bugs that existed in the previous version. Continuing to use an outdated version makes you a target for attackers who know how to exploit those weaknesses in the software.<\/p>\n<p>Another reason to upgrade your browser is performance. Put simply, old browsers are as slow as molasses! Upgrading from a old browser like Internet Explorer 7 or 8 to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/chrome\" target=\"_blank\">Chrome<\/a> will greatly improve your online experience and the speed at which you browse.<\/p>\n<p>And Finally\u2026<\/p>\n<p>For the love of that is green on this earth, please stop using Internet Explorer! I know it comes bundled with Windows, but the fact of the matter is that IE is so far behind in relation to other browsers like <a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/chrome\" target=\"_blank\">Google Chrome<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.firefox.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Firefox<\/a>. I will even go as far as saying it\u2019s like the bad neighbour of browsers that breaks everything.<\/p>\n<p>So please upgrade your web browser and save us.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/91bf9_chrome.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18383\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/91bf9_chrome.jpg\" alt=\"Chrome\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Chrome<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.google.com\/chrome\" target=\"_blank\">Chrome<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/91bf9_firefox.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18382\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/91bf9_firefox.jpg\" alt=\"Firefox\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Firefox<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.firefox.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Firefox<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/91bf9_safari.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18380\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/91bf9_safari.jpg\" alt=\"Safari\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">Safari<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.apple.com\/safari\/\" target=\"_blank\">Safari<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/b95a2_internetexplorer.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-18381\" src=\"http:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/plugins\/rss-poster\/cache\/b95a2_internetexplorer.jpg\" alt=\"Inernet Explorer\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\">IE<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/windows.microsoft.com\/en-US\/internet-explorer\/products\/ie\/home\" target=\"_blank\">IE<\/a><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start Shareaholic LikeButtonSetBottom Automatic --><!-- End Shareaholic LikeButtonSetBottom Automatic -->\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is a terrible epidemic known as \u201cOutdated Web Browsers\u201d present throughout the whole world that is threatening to destroy the sanity of web designers.
