- phear 14y agoA curious case, IE supported but chrome isnt. Microsoft shareholding aside that is indeed strange. Anyone with any intel on why?
- citricsquid 14y agoNobody can find that it was removed, just that it was never added, discussion from 5 days ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4020406 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4020406 Specifically: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4022171 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4022171
- tent1 14y agoThat's not the supported browser list – this is: http://www.facebook.com/help/210310575676558 http://www.facebook.com/help/210310575676558 It's always been on there.
- keverw92 14y agoGlad they are supporting it! Looks like that page is just to download one. I wish they would add Chrome to it but meh. Not a big deal. Google has advertising all over for Chrome it seems when you use IE, maybe on the other ones also.
- jameswyse 14y agoThey probably just forgot to add it..
- jawns 14y agoThis is odd ... but it's not like Google doesn't do the same thing all the time, at least to a degree. Look at its most recent interactive Google Doodle, the Moog keyboard. When you accessed the page on Firefox, there was a little note that said something like, "Consider upgrading to a modern browser like Chrome to get the full experience." (I think the Chrome version made use of a different method for producing the audio -- presumably implemented for the sole reason of promoting Chrome.)
- okamiueru 14y agoI think I'll file this under w/e. People do make a big deal about the most trivial things.
