For those thinking of upgrading browsers, this newsletter also answers the question "why update?"
This was first published in Sep 1998. It is updated each Saturday.
This focuses on major browsers, and on browsers wanted to test websites: AOL, AOL-Desktop, AOL-Explorer, AOL-Netscape, Apple Safari, iCab, Konqueror, Lynx, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla & Friends (Camino, Firefox, SeaMonkey, etc.) OmniWeb, Opera, and W3C Amaya.
Note : there is a lot of very good information elsewhere about browsers, and there is no point in “reïnventing the wheel”, so the Browser News will link to such information rather than try to duplicate the information. For example, when a new browser appears, the Browser News will announce it, but refer you to other sites where, if you are interested, you can find details.
