Microsoft Sends Out Weird Viral Kit for IE 8 Beta
I got this super weird IE 8 viral marketing kit from Microsoft in the mail a little while ago. I don’t think the phrase “slicing the web” has ever been used by anybody to refer to browser usage. Anybody. Still, it’s a decent effort (even if it is just for IE 8 beta 2 and not the final release), and I can always use more gauze. Seriously, “slice the web”?
Update: MeanMF points out that slices are a new feature in IE8.

I like Microsoft, but their marketing always reminds me of Church groups when they try to be ‘hip’ and ‘with it’, like all the kiddies are today. Microsoft, please poach Apples marketing team! ffs! You know you can afford it… or more to the point, can you afford not to?
Seriously, you guys don’t get the joke? What kind of nerds are you? Whoever designed it was a star wars fan, “slicing” is what the star wars characters called it when they would hack computer terminals.
