Stop using Internet Explorer 8!

About 19% of YWSers are still using Internet Explorer 8. I beg of you: please stop! Not only is it a very buggy browser, but YWS also loads much slower and looks much worse in IE 8. Here are some good alternatives: Chrome Frame : This is just a plug-in for your browser that will keep absolutely everything looking exactly the same as before. Yet, you will get all the benefits of Google Chrome. Internet Explorer 9: IE 9 actually isn't bad, and it's better than Chrome or Firefox in a few ways. Unfortunately, it's only available for Vista and Windows 7. Still, if you have one of those two (as the vast majority of you do), upgrade! Get Google Chrome : Chrome is a great browser. It's fast, sleek, and easy to use. There's no excuse really for using IE over Chrome. Get Firefox : If you want a lot of customization, Firefox is your friend. There are tens of thousands of different themes, including even a YWS theme . So please, stop using Internet Explorer 8. It's a terrible browser.

It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, very small.
