After confirming to kill the Internet Explorer last year, Microsoft finally did the deed on 15th June earlier this month. To commemorate and honor the OG web browser that once dominated the market, a South Korean software engineer decided to make a gravestone for the Internet Explorer browser, which recently went viral on the internet. Check out the details right now!
Jung Ki-young is a Korea-based software engineer who had a love-hate relationship with the browser. So, following the recent death of Internet Explorer, Ki-young spent a month, designing a classy gravestone for the browser.
The Korean engineer went on to state that he had to work much harder to make his apps and websites look good on Internet Explorer. And as most Korean government organizations and banks still use Internet Explorer for daily internet browsing, Ki-young’s clients kept asking him to keep his websites and apps optimized for Explorer.
“That’s another reason for me to thank the Explorer, it has now allowed me to make a world-class joke,” Jung said. “I regret that it’s gone, but I won’t miss it. So its retirement, to me, is a good death,” he further added.
