  1. Visit Internet Explorer 8 Readiness Toolkit Internet Explorer 8 Readiness Toolkit

    http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/ie8/readiness/

    Chris Wilson and his team at Microsoft release a "readiness toolkit," for IE 8, which includes (among other things), a beta of the application and a new debugging tool long the lines of Firebug. Nice. As of today, the Web Standards movement is … More

  2. Visit Microsoft changes stance on version targeting default behavior Microsoft changes stance on version targeting default behavior

    http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2008/03/03/microsoft-s-interoperability-principles-and-ie8.aspx

    > "We’ve decided that IE8 will, by default, interpret web content in the most standards compliant way it can." So there you have it. This should make a lot of standards-oriented developers happy, as it makes out jobs easier. I *think* this is … More

  3. Visit Eric Meyer: Almost Target Eric Meyer: Almost Target

    http://meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2008/01/24/almost-target/

    Eric shares a story about a time in his days at Mozilla when they were faced with a similar situation to that which led Microsoft towards version targeting. I feel sorry for the guys on the IE team. Having talked to a few of them personally abo… More

  4. Visit The B-List: X-UA-8-Ball The B-List: X-UA-8-Ball

    http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2008/feb/19/8ball/

    James Bennett talks again about X-UA-Compatible (Microsoft's IE8 version targeting mechanisim). This one is funny, and probably accurate -- but it still doesn't make me get that up in arms over the fact that I have to add a meta tag to my document… More

  5. Visit Shaun Inman: Burden Shaun Inman: Burden

    http://www.shauninman.com/archive/2008/02/19/burden

    > "The strong have always been tasked with carrying the weak. In the case of the ongoing X-UA-Compatible bluster, the strong are the savvy standardistas. The burden? A single meta tag or http header. Can we move on now?" Exactly the point I've … More

    http://www.alistapart.com/articles/theyshootbrowsers

    [Jeremy](http://www.alistapart.com/articles/theyshootbrowsers) and [Jeffrey](minorthreat) have a bit of a shoot-out regarding the IE version targeting mechanism in the latest ALA. For what it's worth, I come drown more on Jeremy's side of this one… More

    http://www.b-list.org/weblog/2008/jan/28/ie8/

    For anyone trying to make sense out of the whole IE8 `X-UA-Compatible` nonsense, James Bennet's explanation is almost certainly the most well-thought out and easy-to-understand one you're going to find. I now have an opinion on this matter. I'm wi… More

    http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2007/12/19/internet-explorer-8-and-acid2-a-milestone.aspx

    Wow, very nice. This is impressive. It also makes Opera look very, very silly. So now that all the majors can claim reasonable standard compliancy, can we please get those browser wars started again? :) Congrats, IE8 team!

  9. Visit Molly: Conversation with Bill Gates about IE8 and Microsoft Transparency Molly: Conversation with Bill Gates about IE8 and Microsoft Transparency

    http://www.molly.com/2007/12/05/conversation-with-bill-gates-about-ie8-and-microsoft-transparency/

    Kudos to Molly for being willing to ask Bill Gates tough questions straight to his face. Personally, I'm less interested in what MS is doing with regards to standards support in IE8 and more interested in what they're doing to improve adoption rat… More
