Microsoft will help feed the hungry if you drop IE6 for IE8

Microsoft has just announced that they will provide 16 meals for hungry Americans (not meant ironically) if users upgrade their browsing experience from Internet Explorer 6 to Internet Explorer 8.

During Hunger Action month, they will give 16 meals to help the 36 million Americans struggling with hunger for each person that downloads IE8 through their site.

So it seems as though it's not just web developers that are trying to rid the world of IE6 after all. This is a great programme for helping out those in need, whilst improving the overall internet experience. Kudos to Microsoft.
