How is WP8 going to break the web? They have something like 2% of the market, which is hardly a monopoly that can be swing around.
Also, are the IE shenanigans news to anybody? There does seem to be a contingent of fresh-faced webdevs who think Microsoft's reputation for evil is overblown. It wasn't; they certainly did a lot earn it.
Unfortunately when a website is built with the requirement to support as many people as it can, even 2% will cause things which make incompatibilities to be taken off the table.
But other browsers can't take advantage of fast Javascript compiler like Safari can, or i'm i wrong? That's almost like Apple forbid all other browser.
Is there a particular reason for contributing this blog article, rather than just linking to the post itself [1]? It doesn't seem to add anything other than "read this comment".
Why now this article, when IE 9/10 finally works well (from web dev point of view)?
Maybe it's just me, i'm not expert in html/css by far, but I must do tweaks for firefox and chrome equally like i do for IE. Or better, i don't do them very much in last year or so, browser standards works in all latest version today.
Yawn... Comment on reddit fails to mention the part Netscape played in their own downfall... Ultimately MS were proved right, a browser is a core part of the OS

Ps. I hate IE, and I'm an Apple user.
