YouGoogleTube & IE7 Ships Tomorrow!

Well it's official. Google has bought YouTube for 1.65 billion in stock. The fusion of Google Video and YouTube is a delight

In other news, Microsoft says it's going to ship IE7 tomorrow with its latest round of security patches. Oh joy. Looks like we'll be spending the next two weeks tweaking all of our websites to work with IE7. Gee thanks Microsoft!

My hope is that it'll break so many dang websites that even more people switch to Firefox.

The sooner Windows releases 7 and vista the faster we will see an expolosion of FOSS users. I would argue many more folks will migrate to Linux as well.
Ubuntu Linux
Firefox,Epiphany
Slackware Linux
Quickfox
