While this used to be a subjective process, it has actually been turned into a science with an easy to follow flowchart of yes/no questions. It’s cute and clever, which always gets bonus points, and it seems as though the site has been around for 10 years, which should give it a lot of cred. Normally I’d enjoy the moment on a post like this, but it’s actually spurred on a second article in this genre of How-to posts - How to tell if a web page sucks Part II: view the exact same link in IE.

While I’m sure Bruce Alderson will lose little or no sleep knowing that IE users like myself are unable to really view the page, let this be a warning to developers to ensure their posts/pages/sites are cross-browser compatible. At Superb, we try and test (religiously) in IE6/7 and Mozilla, with a sprinkling of Safari and IE and Mozilla for Mac.

UPDATE: Of course I go to the page on my home computer and it comes up fine in IE7. Regardless, it’s still a fun thing to go through and the point of ensuring cross-browser compatability stands.
