Life is grand

I am glad to read that Internet Explorer 8 is currently passing the Acid2 test. Acid2 is a bit thin on the practical side of web development but it indicates a strong commitment from Microsoft and the Internet Explorer team to getting web standards right. It also shows that the guys have been working hard on the next version of Internet Explorer and that the hoohah from the blogosphere last week was a bit OTT (this Acid2 announcement has come at a good time for them.)

Also the news that IE8 will be available in beta format after MIX08, first half of 2008.

As Tom says, 2008 could be a good year for web developers and web users.
