Ie8 Beta Launch Imminent - Internet explorer to be released in the near future

delvin.friends
Microsoft has outlined some of the improvements it has made to the reliability of Internet Explorer 8 prior to the release of the second beta version, pencilled in for the second hald of august.
The browser's performance and recovery have been two areas of focus according to microsoft. The company said that a great deal of work has gone into making sure IE8 is more robust in these areas.
"Most users want their browser to work, recover smoothly after a crash, and display the web correctly. Users are not as concerned with what causes the problem, whether that be a poorly performing website," said microsoft's Andy Zeigler.
Features that aim to improve reliability include Automatic Crash Recovery, Windows Error Reporting, which feeds errors back to Microsoft.

However given the current market, the possibilities of IE8 being a hit are rare, even though it has been proved that the browser market is farly competing given the launch of Firefox 3.

Whats your say ???

I have the internet explorer 8 beta 1. Its genuine advantage software (you can get it when you proove you version of windows is legal).

its even worse at positioning page elements than any of there others.
and was three times less reliable.

I really hope microsoft can fix it,m because at the moment, verson 4 is beter than 8.

What can you expect since IE8 is trying to be standards compliant, and I know that IE8 had a lot of problems with ajax and javascript in particular. So hopefully when beta 2 comes out that it fixes a lot of the problems from the first beta.

Deep down we all know it isnt going to happen! MS arent worried about who uses their browser, all they care about is their paid software like office and windows. IE wont be antwhere near the FF or opera standards for a good few years yet!

Having said that i might be tempted to try a later beta

    (13)
    If you've given the newly-released Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 a spin, you've probably noticed that
    there aren't a whole lot of eye-popping new features. However, there are a few subtle
    improvements that make it a nice upgrade. In addition to built-in spellchecker, Firefox 2.0 also
    has close buttons on every individual tab - a much-needed feature (especially on Mac OS X.)
    There's also better (but still not great) RSS integration. When you click on a site's feed
    icon (at the far end of the address bar), a preview page with the option to choose your feed rea....

    also just added the live video software also for free, so if you have a web cam you can see the

  19. Skyos Beta 8.5 Better But Still Very Beta
    An alternative OS+GUI, a bit like BeOS (0)
    Mostly for entertainment and to see whether Robert Szeleney (one-man shop) has made much progress on
    it, I downloaded and installed SkyOS 5 beta 8.5 on my main basement x86, an eMachines T2958 with
    add-in NVidia. I had tried 8.4 but had some issues. Fewer issues in 8.5. This is way-alternative,
    far left (or right, rather) of Linux. For an early beta it's pretty slick. Looks and works a
    bit like BeOS, but more current and with a custom GUI dev system (SkyGI) that beats the heck out of
    X, IMHO. Sky recognized most of my hardware without trouble except no sound. The pa....

  22. Broadband In Gas
    Carrying internet over gas pipelines (5)

    Apparently, this company has some patents pending on devices that can be installed in gas pipelines
    that go to commercial and residential buildings to provide the "last mile" connection for broadband.
    It appears the technology is based on radio frequencies propogated down the gas pipe as a wave

    actual implementation/trials of this technology going on presently?....

    adopted it as a money saving venture. In the UK BT announced yesterday a new phone service whereby
    when you take your phone outside your home it uses the Vodafone network, and when you use it at home
    it automatically uses voIP over bradband. Sounds interesting.......
  24. Ipv4 Vs. Ipv6
    IPV6 the future. (10)
    Another article I did to compare IPV4 and IPV6. Ipv4 vs. Ipv6 Ipv4 is the fourth version of
    Internet protocol, but the first one to be widely deployed. It uses a 32 bit addressing and allows
    for 4,294,967,296 unique addresses. Ipv4 has four different class types, the class types are A, B,
    C, and D. An example of Ipv4 is 207. 142. 131. 235. The ipv4 uses a subnet mask because of the large
    numbers of computers used today. The subnet mask helps reduce the number of unique IP given to
    companies, corporations and so on. An example of a subnet mask is a company. A arch....
  25. Microsoft Confirmed IE7 Compatible with XP and newer
    Internet Explorer 7 only for XP (26)
    Micrsoft confirmed what we've already expected. The new-coming explorer IE 7 will only be
    compatible with windows XP and newer. The two reasons why old dinosaurs that still use Windows 2000
    and lower won't be able to use the new IE are: 1. state in which is the extended support of
    Windows 2000 and 2. mostly of technical nature (IE 7 is goin to have a few security updates and
    imporvements, which bases on the functionality of the new XP SP2 and this is the reason for its
    incompatibility with other versions of Windows) Source: Slashdot ....
  26. Voip(voice Over Internet Protocol)
    real money saver (16)
    VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) is the communication technology of the future for sure. Legacy
    technology carries voice signals over analog circuits and lines. Voice over IP converts the analog
    signal to digital and transports the signal to the receiver where it is converted back from digital
    to analog and the receiver hears the sender's voice. This provides a more efficient and
    economical means of communication. I have know VOIP for quite a some time since i started online.

    it is my perception on future OS, just some random thoughts Internet already is a indispensible part
    of computer and future OS will be focus on better using and serving Internet. nowadays most PC are
    clients of the whole network, in the future, one important feature of OS will be making every PC a
    client as well as server. for example, by default /my documents will be home directory of servers
