It still needs the features its big brother wordpress for iphone has but overall not too shabby!

Mary Jo Foley posted what looks like the entire list of broken sites, but here are some of the more ridiculous sites that don’t display properly in IE8, and require it to render them old school style (aka not web standards compliant). Here are some of the more laughable ones.

microsoft.com
google.com
yahoo.com
cctv.com
msn.com.cn
live.com (a Microsoft site)
wikipedia.org
flickr.com
wordpress.com
adobe.com
facebook.com
apple.com

Apparently even their own site can not be rendered in “Standards Mode,” what a hoot!

I have chosen the design that I have branded “Glow” to become my final site.

They are pretty much the same except the Flash version will not show the blog in the Flash itself. These images are uploaded using the new Wordpress 2.5 gallery feature.

  • Multiple file upload with progress bars.
