Taxi battles for beauty with Internet Explorer 9

As a Mac user, I’m more likely to be surfing the net using Safari or Firefox, but even I will admit that a more than sizeable chunk of the world runs with Microsoft‘s Internet Explorer.

To promote the new Internet Explorer 9 and what they call a faster, richer and safer web experience fuelled by HTML5 the Toronto and Montreal offices of Taxi have created an online and offline gaming experience entitled The Battle of Beauty. Starting tomorrow, June 10th, participants can log in to wage war against “the Ugly Side of the Web”, represented by evil critters known as Peeping Tom, Eternal Loadworm and Mr Clutter.

Now if you’re in Toronto and happen to be near the corner of Richmond and John (and if you’re reading this from Toronto, chances are you work in that ‘hood in the city’s Ad Ghetto) you’ll be able to join in on a real world version of the battle tomorrow and Saturday from 9PM til midnight.
