Torn between finishing typing the blog entry on porn and starting to write one of the eight university essays due on various dates within the next 7 weeks, I compromised by doing neither, but made Vickiepedia look more or less the same on IE5, IE5.5 and Firebird 0.7 as well instead. Yeah, the site should now work on those browser versions.
I can’t quite decide whether I love or hate you, Vickie, you moron.
Vickie Diablos is a postgraduate student in Health Informatics, a hardcore gamer geek and a socially awkward logic and science nerd. She thought keeping a "cool blog" would make her a cool person. Alas.

On behalf of people who use those browsers (though uh…I don’t), I say that you should love yourself.
On behalf of your university tutors, I say that you should hate yourself.
On behalf of myself, I say that you should do both equally.

Ahhhhh, Vickie! I love you because you’re so nice to all your visitors regardless of browser type and screen resolution!
But at the same time, I’m going ARGHHHH because those people with the mighty old browser versions should be switching or upgrading to the newer ones and you’re encouraging them to remain!
Hehehehe, joking!

I hate trying to make everything look the same on IE and firefox, it’s annoying. I just assume everyone uses firefox. Oh, and I’ll be waiting for that blog on porn.

haha. I hope you finish the porn entry soon!
Eight essays?! eep. Good luck! I’d forgotten how the university workload can be when it comes to papers (my 2nd degree didn’t require us to write much – but then again it was an art program @_@)…

I remember when I used IE 5, oh my! That was the only browser I had knowledge on (Netscape too, though). I’m so glad I’m now a Firefox girl, it’s so much faster for me. Kudos for you for making your site as accessible as possible!
Eight essays in seven weeks, that’s intense. Last semester I had to write at least one each week for my Intermediate English class, they weren’t really long, but still, it got a little annoying and boring. Good luck with all the essays dear!

I did the same thing last week. My site looked awful in all IE’s.
Don’t leave your essays to the last moment.
Porn? We will see a video or pictures too?

I say screw the essays and write a bout porn! I think that could be a really interesting blog post, depending on which opinions you have regarding it.

Optimizing your website for minorities (I think,
) before doing your work for uni? Really, do you have to ask yourself whether to love or hate yourself? Your priorities are very strange

IE 5?!
D00d.
I used to use that browser on my iMac, back in the days before Mac OS X and the introduction of Safari.
Good luck with your umpteen essays. Rather you than me, mate!

*first wonders about the porn entry…*
Oh me oh my oh, people still use those browsers?! Crappers. I’m currently using a theme made by someone else so I’m just going to assume it’s suitable (somewhat) universally between browsers.
That’s one heck of a load of essays! Rather you than me!

How long and extensive do those essays have to be, and what’re they on? I sometimes get two essays on a weekly basis

Whoa! IE 5.5?!?! Good job, Vickie! I’m nowhere as hardworking as you are with less frequently used browsers.

Hello! Nice blog you have here. I’ll be checking back one in awhile.
Ohh btw, you might check out this new game called Atlantica(or something like that) from Ndoor Games. I heard it’s cool. Just sharing since you are a gamer too.
Peace!

That is great. It also means you are being a considerate person to increase the web standards of your site. It is not always easy to do and for some, it can be very frustrating. I know, I have been there myself.
