I'm actually building a web app with a small start up, and we just do not have the time to make our service ie6 compatible. We are going to let users know that and redirect them to a very plane jane site where you can still get the information but not very efficiently. However our market is mainly tech savvy people so it should work out.

Just use the js widget on http://www.savethedevelopers.org/ ... no sense writing your own.

I'm also ignoring IE6, crappy old corporate computers be damned. It's just not worth my sanity.

Sorry, that widget just gives that little dropdown redirecting to their site? I meant that I was going to just provide an info page where the user can still get the information on my site, just not in the same flashy page as everyone else.

Fair enough, but sometimes tech savvy people use computers of tech unsavvy people (friends and relatives, internet cafés, corporations with reactionary IT departments...)
