Is it just me or "IE evangelist" sounds a bit strange? :)
Hm... this article does not make sense.
First they say
Firefox users are more likely to "mess" with your business model. "They tend to install things like ad blockers, whereas the Internet Explorer user is more mainstream."
Then they actually want IE users to start using custom plugins too.
Working as a web developer I have to deal with IE6 bugs almost on a daily basis. Sometimes I imagine how much time is spent on this. If we could use it on different purpose we could write a new browser with complete standards compliance.
I wanted to say that Firefox users "mess with your business model" because they have plugins for that. If you will give IE users a set of plugins to choose from, the most popular will be AdBlock. So main benefit they are referring to will be gone.
Sorry if my English is a bit confusing, it's not my first language.
Because you included this "They tend to install things like ad blockers, whereas the Internet Explorer user is more mainstream."
I exclude the possibility you implying what you actually meant, because that phrase says IE users are mainstream therefore they don't care installing ad blocks etc.
Therefore the assumption was that you implied, that wanting IE users is meaningless which contradicts what the phrase says, which didn't make up.
