Google Reader To Drop Support For Older Web Browsers

Google is no stranger to nixing support for older web browsers, and now the search engine giant has announced that its popular Google Reader will be ditching support for older browsers such as IE6, Firefox 1.0, 2.0, Safari 2.0, 3.0, and even Chrome versions 1, 2, and 3. Google claims that such a move would allow it to spend its time improving Google Reader instead of fixing issues with antiquated browsers. Are you still using an old browser version? Will this announcement by Google spur you to update to the latest version?
