I’ve noticed a new trend among commercial sites. The Beta “thang” is in. Google and now Microsoft has a ton of beta sites now that include partially created or missing in functionality sites. They can very well get away with it because its “beta”. As in for testing, or so they say.
I’ve noticed a couple of other sites that are doing this as well though none as high profile as the search giants are doing. One thing remains however, they are realizing that their sites must be very standards compliant in order to pull of some of the things that they want. That includes Microsoft. What got me is the fact that Hotmail now supports Firefox. Things are starting to looking up in the web arena regardless of browser.
