[nabs-l] watch out! it's another ridiculous update from Google

Fri May 24 16:05:35 UTC 2013

Desiree!
Google Groups won't let me access them with IE8, but although Youtube is a Google service, I can access it just fine.
Surprisingly, it hasn't changed!
Flash has got to go though!
Blessings, Joshua

Another thing to keep in mind is that Youtube is a google service as
well. That would be another thing you might lose out on as an internet
explorer user. Although, from Misty's message above, it sounds like it
may just be those who are using IE 8 who will have to either switch or
upgrade. It makes sense, given the integration of HTML 5, which is
slowly replacing flash. As far as I'm concerned, I welcome it. I've
hated flash ever since I realized that it and Firefox get along about
as well as a pitbull and a kitten.
