One very important part of working on a website is designing it so that the website is cross-browser compatible. By this, what I mean is the web designer wants the website to show up in a Netscape web browser just like it does in the Firefox web browser or Microsoft’s Internet Explorer (IE).

Why Cross-Browser Compatibility?

With all of the various operating systems used today - Windows (PC) and OSX (Mac) to different distributions of Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, Synbian,Unix, and even WebTV or Cell Phones - people who browse the internet may have different web browsers - and even different versions of the browsers installed.

Looking at the logs of Aleeya dotNet, I can see that these web browsers have been used:

  • MS Internet Explorer
  • Firefox
  • Safari
  • Mozilla
  • LibWWW
  • Opera
  • Netscape
  • Links
  • Konqueror
  • Camino
  • Amaya
  • K-Meleon
  • Lynx
  • WebCollage *
  • Nutscrape
  • Galeon
  • WebTV
  • Motorola Browser *
  • NeoPlanet

As I was reading a post from Wordpress.org, I ran across FunkyMagic’s website website. On it, there is an article about a different kind of search engine, so I thought I would check it out.

Aleeya in a search result on Kartoo Search Engine

The Kartoo Search Engine is a different type of search engine to watch in action. It does the meta search that most do, but the results are displayed in a visual real time type of results. The results are shown in a map and how the different results relate to each other. For more information on the Kartoo Search Engine.

I have to say this is a very interesting visual. I am on a high speed 5.0 MB DSL Connection, so I have a hard time judging how it works on slower speeds and DSL, but this is great! For the times you want to see how your results relate to each other, this idea is brilliant!
