Browser Support Notes

Posted February 3, 2013, 8:09 p.m.

Just a few minor updates to official browser support here on Off on a Tangent. I have initiated official support for the default browsers in Microsoft Windows RT (tablet), Microsoft Windows Phone 8, and BlackBerry 10. It’s nice to have Microsoft and BlackBerry (née Research in Motion) getting back in the mobile operating system game.

I always try to maintain official support for the major browsers on all of the major desktop and mobile operating systems. This broad support for the major browser engines also means that it is very likely (though not guaranteed) that the site will work on niche devices and browsers as well. Please contact me if you have any problems with the site in any supported browser.

Scott Bradford has been putting his opinions on his website since 1995—before most people knew what a website was. He has been a professional web developer in the public- and private-sector for over twenty years. He is an independent constitutional conservative who believes in human rights and limited government, and a Catholic Christian whose beliefs are summarized in the Nicene Creed. He holds a bachelor’s degree in Public Administration from George Mason University. He loves Pink Floyd and can play the bass guitar . . . sort-of. He’s a husband, pet lover, amateur radio operator, and classic AMC/Jeep enthusiast.
