“Google is continuing to kill off support for Internet Explorer
6 in its services; the search giant has announced that two more of
its Web properties will stop supporting IE6 as of March 1. “Many
other companies have already stopped supporting older browsers like
Internet Explorer 6.0 as well as browsers that are not supported by
their own manufacturers,” a blog post on the Official Google
Enterprise Blog begins to explain. “We’re also going to begin
phasing out our support, starting with Google Docs and Google
Sites. As a result you may find that from March 1 key functionality
within these products — as well as new Docs and Sites features —
won’t work properly in older browsers.” Older browsers, according
to Google, include anything prior to IE7, Firefox 3.0, Chrome 4.0,
and Safari 3.0.”
