Great Article. I was wrestling with having the user select their timezone as well and this seems much better!

Comment on Microsoft Extends IE6 Support to 2014 by Nelson

Hi Tristan, thanks for your comments. I definitely hear your frustration, but for the purpose of context, I should point out that this is a web developers blog, and we’re discussing IE6’s extended support lifecycle that has come to light, not the lifecycles of operating systems, despite the fact that the two are linked. The question being asked here is, should we as web developers continue to support IE6 through this bump it has received from Microsoft.

Wow, this is Really old news. Microsoft has ALWAYS been committed to supporting the version of IE that ships with an OS for the lifetime of that OS. Dont like IE6? Simply stop the “Save XP” campaigns.

I’m tired of people whining that they are left with this old dead-weight technology while at the same time complaining that they dont want this new unproven technology.

Put up or shut up.

Comment on Does Server Location Matter to Search Engines? by Nelson

@DIY Choosing a target location for your site is meant to override the default behaviour. By default, if no target location is chosen, Google looks at TLD and server IP.
