Google has reminded Internet Explorer users of the current rules, according to which Google Apps guarantees correct operation only in the latest browsers. In particular, the latest version of Chrome is supported, as well as the last two versions of Firefox, Internet Explorer and Safari.
In connection with the recent official release of Windows 8.1 and the Internet Explorer 11 browser, the third from the end version of Internet Explorer remains, ie IE 9. Although IE11 was released three weeks ago, Google only now officially stops testing all of its services for IE9. Thus, more than half of Internet Explorer users (taking into account those using IE8 and IE9) remain in a suspended state, as they may encounter incorrect web applications at any time when logging in to Gmail or another Google site.
In the coming days, all IE9 users will see a notification when they visit Google sites to stop supporting their browser. Microsoft, meanwhile, is trying to rebrand, returning to Internet Explorer a trendy modern image. Admittedly, advertisers have shown talent and courage. An official talisman, the character of anime, Inori Aizawa (藍 澤 祈) was created for the browser. ')
She has a personal Facebook page, and in an advertising cartoon video a girl is protected from the forces of evil by a secure shield of Internet Explorer.
They say that this is the most successful advertisement of Internet Explorer since the famous video “The Child of the 90s”, which evokes nostalgic feelings with pictures from childhood: 3.25 floppy disks, US Robotics modem, tamagotchi, etc.
The idea of advertising was formulated in the last seconds of the video: “The future then seemed bright. Now you grew up. We, too. Go back to the new Internet Explorer. ”
