Are 99.9% of Websites Obsolete?

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the nah-its-just-us dept.

citizenkeller writes "Zeldman is at it again: " Though their owners and managers may not know it yet, 99.9% of all websites are obsolete. These sites may look and work all right in mainstream, desktop browsers whose names end in the numbers 4 or 5. But outside these fault-tolerant environments, the symptoms of disease and decay have already started to appear.""

    Slashdot does a good job of making websites obsolete for a good week after something has been slashdotted. You should really think about incorporating a caching system so that you do not take the original site down...

    It seems like someone has finally noticed that if you do not test your site using a wide range of browsers you do not know how your page is going to look... To most of us this problem is obvious.
