IE version 9 was officially launched on 15th September 2010 with a lot of promising features and a magnitude of reengineering to give a fast, clean, secure, never before web experience. You can download IE9 Beta from the official website Beautyoftheweb
Web browsing or internet browsing constitutes almost over 80% of usage for a PC / Laptop users. Still it is one of the most compromised areas too. Browser crashes and slower loading time of graphic web pages are going to be things of the past with the latest IE in action. One of the most striking feature of IE 9 is that it puts content first. The screen space for the website is increased and browser controls reduced. So how does the experience get better?
1. Hardware acceleration: With the use of Microsoft DirectX technology in this browser, premium quality graphics will be displayed at ease.
2. HTML 5: Now enjoy Adobe Flash and Microsoft SilverLight without any need for plugins - thanks to HTML 5 supportable IE 9
3. JScript engine: The javascript engine used in IE9 is "Chakra" which compiles scripts on the fly that the running time is reduced
4. SVG: With SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) incorporated in IE9, the images and charts and maps will no more be pixilated in browser.
IE 9 has some very cool features over its previous version.
Single search/URL bar: With the unified search and URL bar, the browser has more space to display the page contents using lesser space for browser tools.
Pin websites to taskbar: If you liked the feature in windows 7 that allowed you to pin the frequently used applications to the taskbar, then you are going to love this new feature in IE9. You can now pin a website like an application to the task bar. Voila, you get to browser your favorite site just by a single click. Whats more, if the site had configured meta tags for jump list, you'll see them upon right clicking on the pinned icon.
Smart Security: The IE9 is smarter in identifying and memorizing your regular download types.The built-in download manager doesn't pop up annoying warning for your most common types of downloads (like winamp) unlike the smartscreen filters in the previous IE versions.
Tear off/Aero Snap tabs: Well, this is not new if you had experience with Firefox 4. I thought this was one feature that IE was missing with respect to tabbed browsing and now that's there too!
