Stinky IE8 compatibility mode killing your website?

If so, simply add this META code to your site to force IE8 NOT to use compatibility mode... http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE8"

Ahhh... fixed!

You can of course also add as a HTTP header in IIS on your web server! Saves adding it to multiple websites.

OMG... we will run out of IP addresses!!!

SMH publish a story how we are about to run out of IP addresses because Vint Cerf did not think his original experiment would ever "end".

"The protocol underpinning the net, known as IPv4, provides only about 4 billion IP addresses - not website domain names, but the unique sequence of numbers assigned to each computer, website or other internet-connected device."

Well, after the lengthy story of doom, it's all saved thanks to IPv6 set to replace the current IPv4. So not much of a story then?
