The guys in Redmond released the information on their latest web dev app: the Expression Web SuperPreview.  Before I go any further, I want to say that they should fire the 4 year old that names their applications.  I don’t care if they have to create a compensation package including “Wet Ones” and a transition day-care package, there has to be limits to how uninspired a name can be.

It’s truly comical that the company whose name web developers the world over curse while coding HTML is the very entity to help you view how poorly their browsers render code alongside browsers that render it correctly.

The next thing you know, they’ll be unveiling an open source code repository.
