RIP Internet Explorer. After nearly three decades of service, the browser has been retired and this Korean engineer has commemorated it with a real tombstone.
last week, after almost three decades of service. For many of us over a certain age, it was the first real method of going online and surfing the web. However, for South Korean software engineer Jung Ki-young, Internet Explorer’s departure had perhaps moved him so much that he commissioned a real tombstone for it.
According to Reuters, the tombstone was meant to show Jung’s mixed feelings for Internet Explorer, which had played a big part in his working life. As a software engineer, he had to ensure websites and apps worked well with Explorer; this task alone took up more of his time than any other browser did. Despite the additional trouble and the fact that so few people used Internet Explorer in its last couple of years, his clients still required him to ensure compatibility with Internet Explorer.
