While looking around the Daily Mail website (I know. I know.), I stumbled upon this interesting item:
Internet Explorer 8? Customised for MailOnline, you say?
The problem is, it all works fine until you try and look at something other than the Mail’s website:

I noticed the Guardian offering their own branded IE8 aswell. Pretty retarded if you ask me, browsers should never ever be specific to one site, that’s like the WHOLE POINT OF THE INTERNET!?
Oh Jesus. Do they? Does it just link to the official website of The Wire?
I’m with you. I have a browser. FOR BROWSING.
Sadly IE8 is our mandated browsing tool here at work, so I manage to easilly navigate to such wonders as http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-1296282/I-dosing-How-teenagers-getting-digitally-high-music-download-internet.html
I’m curious what sez the AoD regarding this? Personally I feel the same could be accomplished by listening to any Beatles/Pixies/Radiohead/Keane album (for various experiences, Keane obviously provoking the lying on the floor shaking). Also for internet comedy gold, read the comments.
Its the perfect Mail story isn’t it? The young ‘uns in danger, the internet, drugs and a large amount of bollocks.
The winner of the comments is Gary from Tipton in my opinion.
Have you seen this?

Just looked at it! Awesome!
Once the Daily Mail’s website was blocked from my work computer. It didn’t last. Shame.
Wish they’d block it from mine. I have to go and look at porn afterwards to make it less embarrassing.
I love the responses to the i-Dose story on the Mail site – but it puts me in a quandary. ON the one hand it makes me want to subvert all their stories with comic responses in the comments but on the other hand if people do that it will make them think people are reading their site… and I may be contaminated merely by visiting their site!
In the library I work in, we have to keep the Daily Mail under the counter as someone keeps nicking it!
They probably nick the Daily Mail so they can write into the Daily Mail complaining about how society is crumbling because someone keeps nicking the library’s copy of the Daily Mail.
They’re a self-fulfilling idiot.
