Five months ago I wrote about how <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/category/6867.aspx">the IE weblog's Browsing the Web section</a> <a href="/ieblank" title="IEBlank">was empty</a>. Since then, they've written one item in this category, <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/ie/archive/2004/10/14/242445.aspx"><cite>A fresh IE security update</cite></a>. Yes, that's what browsing the web is all about.
</p>
<p>
I seriously believe the only reason it's in this category is that it concludes with the phrase <q>Surf safely!</q>. Do you see? <q>Surf</q>? That's <q>Browsing the Web</q>, that is!
