quick thought... May 14th, 2007 - 3:13AM

In a nutshell: Why I despise Microsoft and CEO Steve Ballmer.

Those crazy kids at Mozilla (or some crazy fan) just put together the switch site of all switch sites: Kill Bill’s Browser.

If people thought Apple poked and prodded Microsoft Windows users during their switch campaign, Mozilla (or the aforementioned fan) is pimp slapping Microsoft IE. They’re even leveraging the Google AdSense program to reward bloggers for promoting (or forcing) IE users to make the move.

Pimp hand in play.

But seriously, out of the 13 reasons they list to make the move, #5 is by far the one that keeps me up at night:

#5 is alive!

I’m not in SF, but I’ve come close enough to leaping into the Hudson over this same frustration (believe me, that skank water is just as dangerous). Hopefully, heads of corporate procurement and InfoSec departments are reached by this site too as they represent the majority of IE users. Although, I don’t think a site talking frankly about porn is going to convince them. They’re in too happy a relationship with the Microsoft empire to pause for self-pleasure minus the pop-ups.

And while we’re schmoozing Microsoft, let’s end this post on a great note and pause to reflect upon why we dislike them so much.

Just where did their purple Nike’s and jugs of Kool-Aid disappear to?
