With the official launch of Microsoft’s new browser Internet Explorer 9 only a few weeks away, allot has already been said about all the great new features it boasts and how impressive it is, but until now nobody has actually had an idea how the new browser will look.
The question is will the new IE9 be all cluttered and busy like previous versions of the browser or have Microsoft approached a new sleeker and minimalistic look like that of Google Chrome.
ZDNet caught a glimpse of IE9′s new user interface when the Russian Microsoft site briefly posted a screenshot and user interface details of Microsoft’s new Internet Explorer 9 browser.
According to Microsoft’s Russian site, Internet Explorer 9′s user interface includes features such as quick-release tabs and by looking at the leaked screenshot a chrome-like address bar and minimalistic layout.
If everything we see here is set to be true, it is evident that Microsoft is finally meaning business with their new Internet Explorer 9 browser.
Not too sure how I feel about those tabs being to the right of the address bar though. Normally I have over 20 tabs open at any time – its not even 6am and I already have 12 tabs open – it just wont fit in that little space they’ve provided. Hopefully you can move it around.
Yea Nick, would be interesting to see what real-estate belongs to tabs on the screen.
