    Arrow Internet Explorer Seeks Hipster Irony, Hathos

    Microsoft's latest bid to create IE relevance: The Browser You Loved to Hate.

    So I guess the overall pitch is "using IE9 is like wearing vintage clothing ironically"? Or something like that?

    -edit-

    P.S.: Hathos is one of my favorite recent coinages — (HAY.thohs; TH as in thin) n. Feelings of pleasure derived from hating someone or something.

    Some piously affirm: "The truth is such and such. I know! I see!"
    And hold that everything depends upon having the “right” religion.
