Why must I press the C1 Monkey Button every day?

SoulMaster · ‎02-22-2012

Someday, I will hit the silly Monkey Button on Capital One's site and it will show me something other than this:

On that day, I will feel like I won the lottery!

On a side note: why does this forum not like Chrome? It's the most popular browser in the world now, and I couldn't paste w/o hopping into Safari. Also, search on Chrome is broken. <--This is me threadjacking myself.

Edited to swap out pasted image for photobucket one.

1) Internet Explorer is still more popular than Chrome.

2) I use Firefox and can't see what you posted either.

Umm... no it isn't. They switched the 1 & 2 spots in November:

http://www.pcworld.com/article/246287/chrome_15_beats_out_ie8_as_worlds_most_popular_browser.html

From the article:

Google Chrome 15 is the most popular web browser in the world overtaking Internet Explorer 8, according to web analytics firm StatCounter. Chrome 15 just barely beat out its Microsoft rival for the first time between November 21 and 27 with 23.63 percent of the global browser market share compared to IE8's 23.5 percent. Mozilla's Firefox 8 trailed behind at a distant third with 12.12 percent of worldwide usage during the same time period.

This is sooooooo off the original topic, but I must. I apologize in advance...

Same article you link to also says:

IE Still Bests Chrome By Brand

While Chrome 15 may be gaining steam worldwide, Internet Explorer is still more popular overall when you count all browser version numbers in use such as IE 6, 7, 8, 9 and Chrome 14 and 15.

BUT...

Back to your original question. I assume you're talking about the "Modify your Features" button. I've never had an offer by clicking that either, and I have a "prime" card.

I use Chrome only on my personal laptop. My office only has IE and Firefox in our available programs.

And Chrome wins again if you count the 63 Million Android phones worldwide that all run Chrome. (except for the hakcers, who probably use opera or fox) It's my fault we're so off topic, I baited the hijack.

Yeah, I switched the image in my OP to use photobucket.

Stupid Monkey button anyway. At least it's not a pull (H or S) to click it. Maybe I'll click it 30 times one day and break the system.

Yeah, that's all I ever see, too! I keep logging in and checking periodically, but at this point, I've pretty much given up hope on Cap One.

BTW, I prefer Firefox on my laptop (PC). Chrome 2nd and IE is last resort.
