Google Phases Out Support for IE6

Only 7 and 8 to go then? ... only kidding!

Seriously, this is a good move. With an estimated 20% of users still running this unsafe 9 year old browser, forcing an upgrade can only benefit the surfing community as a whole. It will also improve the Microsoft offering's vulnerability figures.
