Well, that depends on whether you need it! If your site is broken in IE8 (e.g. because you use conditional comments or hacks to identify IE that apply to 8 as well) and it’s not an option to fix it, use the compatibility mode. Otherwise, don’t – if you’re lucky, your HTML might render identically in IE8 and the current Gecko / Webkit browsers.
EmulateIE7is a fix to ensure compatibility without webmasters having to painfully re-build their pages straight away.It’s definitely not a good practice to use if you’re building a site from scratch.
