I guess some of you have read about IE8 and Microsoft?  Well in a nutshell, they are going to add meta switches to it for diffent websites to show how they should be at different times of creation.  As we all know (well web dudes anyway) each browser and version shows the web in a different way so if someone created a website to look good in IE6 then it would be broken in IE7 etc.

Well I found this posting that sum the last few months up great.  Check it out.

This was the weekend I’d been looking forward to for months. It was the Bad Taste Bear spring party in Leicester. For anyone who hasn’t seen the bears, they are like x-rated versions of those little grey “I love you” bears which every girl goes gooey. For example, imagine a bear with a chainsaw and your there. I’ve been an avid collector for about 4 years now and have amased about 130 of these little statues, all displayed in a series of glass cabinets in my living room. And as such a collector I am a member of the ‘fan club’ and go to their meets and parties. This was one of them.

Based on Tarantino and with a themed bear to match, 4 hours of partying and meeting other like-minded people was the order of the day. I’ve been to such parties before, and unfortunatly this one didn’t stack up to the rest. It was good, but the venue was pretty poor for a party - It was a converted cinema screen which made the stage look a long way from where we were sat. But with all my moaning, I would go to another if it was exactly the same. The reason these are such fun is the people who share the same passion; you can go up to a stranger and be good friends 3 hours later which happened to me with the likes of members calling themselves “ScarboroughKID, or JonnyB64″ and other wonderful names.

The only problem I find is that when it comes to the little furry things, I have no willpower and end up buying more of them. So naturally I came away from the night with 4 new bears for my collection. Its just a good job that my partner is as addicted as me.
