Microsoft has unveiled a website aimed at "raising browser awareness"
Your Browser Matters

Basically it is Metro UI Presentation for IE 9.

IE 9 gets 4 points ,Firefox gets 2, Chrome get 2.5 ,IE 7 gets 1 ,IE 6 get zero .
Safari is not supported and looks like Opera isn't either ..And IE people get to feel good .

It didnt detect my chrome 16.0.889.0 or opera 11.51

Nice Marketing .

What do Microsoft know about browser awareness? IE9 still fails to be as web standards compliant as the rest.

I still have Firefox 3.6.x installed because I'm too lazy to update it and I hate the new rapid release cycle. But I get 1.4 with FF and Chromium gets 2.5. Does this concern me? No!

Chrome.... "WE CAN'T GIVE YOU A SCORE FOR YOUR BROWSER." ...same thing for Safari.

Well that was a waste of time.

IE 9: leave me on and I'll use more memory until you need to make me reboot.
Firefox: I'll forget what tabs you have open but, I have great plugins and security.
Chrome: I just do what I'm suppose too ;-)

You really have to give them props for this. If I had a boat load of green, I'd make a site that side I was better than everyone else. You put in your name, and if it matches my name, it would say something like "you are so much better than everyone else".

I too am no fan of firefox's new release cycle. Every patch is a new version... ? come on. I never recieved notifications when 6 came out (still on 4 beta here), but I'm getting updates about 7 and 8beta.
