Oh hallelujah! YouTube Will Be Next To Kiss IE6 Support Goodbye #webdesign #browsers
Judging by this screenshot taken by an IE6 user who was watching some videos on YouTube, it appears the Google company will be phasing out support for the browser shortly. I don’t have Internet Explorer 6 installed on my computer, so I can’t verify this first hand, but illogical it seems not and a simple Twitter search shows multiple people confirming the news. Heck, some are even downright ecstatic over the news. - Shey, Jamaican of FF from Bookmarklet
What!?!? You mean that I won't be able to watch my videos with my Netscape Navigator Gold any more. That is bull shit! If I can still see google with it, every web site should support it. - Wizetux
Although we can all debate about watching Youtube at work, I thought I remembered seeing something that said that IE6 still had a very considerable share of the browser market recently, mainly from corporations that didn't want to bother upgrading to IE7/8. I wonder if this will spur any of them to upgrade. :) - Bryan Zirkel
That's probably very true Bryan. And it probably won't make a difference since it's hard to present a business case for why you should be allowed to watch Youtube videos at work. :P - Shey, Jamaican of FF
I was about to say the same, Shey ... IE6-bound IT admins will probably rejoice at this news since for all practical purposes YouTube will be blocking itself - LANjackal
these are situations that call for about 10 like buttons. liking once just isn't sufficient. - chrisofspades
Long live IE6. Wait, no, scratch that. - Sparky
They should throw in IE7 while they're at it - Cassidy
@Cassidy Yup - Shey, Jamaican of FF
One of my Federal govt clients (actually most of my govt clients) have their standard PC images locked down to ONLY include IE6 (security flaws and all). Not to worry, since YouTube is blocked as is most social media. - derikp

I wish they tuned down the audience a bit... Could barely hear her at times - Mark Philpot
this lady certainly has a voice! good for her i say for being brave. :) - Tatty Gibson
OMG, I'm in tears here. That was lovely and wow that song with all that. Had to favorite it. </sentimental wimp> - Admiral Anika
Is good to see what nature can do. Incredible voice! - Rafael

That's a magnificent clip, I wish America's Got Talent was so entertaining and surprising. - Jonathan Coffman
i watched this last night, love her! Her voice is a true gift. - Laura Zickus
Thanks for sharing that - perfect for this time of year - Jesse Stay
She's this year's Paul Potts. Great voices, the pair of them. - Mark H
That was just amazing. And the perfect song for both her situation and to start the waterworks. Now i have to follow the show and see if she wins. - Kevin Fox
While I absolutely detest these shows, I must say, this woman got to me. - Rob Michael (Atmos Trio)
It says "embedding disabled by request." - Dawn
You can click through to YouTube via the link. :-) - Kevin Fox
Awesome - Rodfather
Wow. - Todd Hoff
Oh, Duh. Got it, Kevin. This reminds me of the British man who sang opera. It was unbelievable. I think our American shows shoudn't limit the age. I'd love to see what some of the older folks here can do. - Dawn
Here's the opera guy: http://www.youtube.com/watch... - Dawn
Dawn, America's got talent doesn't limit age either - Jesse Stay
Great! I was thinking of American Idol. Never seen America's Got Talent. - Dawn
"so you think you can dance" limits at 30 years or so. Such a shame. - Kevin Fox
"So that's just one side of me!" Hahaha. So nice, she's courageous and willing, good game! So modest to have her walk away after her performance, I'm almost crying. - ElijahBailey-Zu of FF <0,
Wow. I usually avoid all of these types of shows. But that was very cool! - Louis Gray
I actually felt a lump form in my throat. Good for her. - cecily
As LG said, it's my first view of that. Damn talents' shows, they got me. - ElijahBailey-Zu of FF <0,
it's terrific.. awesome.. fantastic.. - Ozan Kilic
I loved this-she is sublime! - Susan Dennis
What a beautiful voice. Love how she proved them all wrong. - Patrick Ward
Fantastic. Thanks for the newspaper link @Sprague D, her life story is just as amazing. - Henry Burger

Incredible stuff. - Russ Jackson
Not bad! I still prefer this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch... - That said, it was a surprisingly good performance. Not as much as Paul Potts, who was entirely horripilative and transcendent. - david beckwith
This was a surprise--and lovely, thx - susan mernit
and I love this song - Erin @queenofspain
Awesome performance. I've never seen the look of pleasant surprise on Simon's face before. You could tell that even he enjoyed it. He still needs to get a better haircut though. - Alex Scoble
Britain may have talent, but that's more than I can say for Simon Cowell. The man is the Antichrist, as far as i'm concerned. - Iain Baker
He was a tamed little kitteh for 6 minutes during that performance though. - Alex Scoble
Don't know enough about Cowell to make a value judgement on the man. Sometimes (and I don't know if this is the case with Cowell) the a-hole attitude is a public front. It's possibly the case with Gordon Ramsey, and it certainly is with Ann Robinson - I've been to a recording of 'The Weakest Link' at Pinewood Studios, and she switches 'bitch mode' on and off along with the cameras. - Ian May
Wow! Brings back memories when I first saw paul potts... - Jorg Jansen
Seriously? This reeks of scripted viral. The show caught (online) fire in '07 with the Paul Potts audition...arguably the hottest shared video of the year. When the show returned last year, there wasn't an act even minutely close to the WOM impact Potts had generated the privious year. Clearly the BGT online buzz strategy for '09... Potts 2.0. #fail - Zach Lytwyn
The best thing about this thread is that there is really only one cynical jaded comment out of all of them. - cecily
Britains Got Talent FTW! - Nicholas James
I cried... - mjc
Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! - josh neff, geek at large
I was completely amazed... - Anthony K. Valley ©
Watching Simon's eyes go wide was soooooo worth it. - Great Scott!
ahh, the power of the edit. great job of making her look like a 'cat lady' for the first several minutes. all the more powerful when we find out she's not totally daft. - MikeAmundsen
That is one courageuos woman with an amazing voice. Goosebumps all over. - Jochen Lillich
Don't judge a book by its cover! - TheHenry
That's absolutely awesome - C.K. Johnson

I really think the only really good backup system will be one where the OS we're using does it for us automagically.
