IE8 Rocks!!!





















After installing IE8 for almost 48 hours, I'm proud to announce that this has been the coolest IE version ever built. One of the common mistakes of IE's previous version is it's inability to detect bad codes which might conflict to the main site being displayed, which would result to a "window freeze" , but perhaps Microsoft have seen this ability on Chrome, they were kind enough to give this a better view and sit on it once and for all.


1. Toolbars













Like me, there are just a handful of common sites which is visit everyday and the "favorites bar" the answer to that. It enables the user to add the commonly user visited sites which minimize the hassle on opening the favorites list!


2. Find Function


















Find function looks familiar right? the only consolation on this part is that we know IE in an integrated system within WINDOWS FAMILY, so we don't have to worry those compatibility issues which has plagues the other browsers



3. Address Bar






Address bar is also a good addition, since if you only remember the main site's name, it will also search the "title" of the site, aside from the usual site address which might be cryptic on some occassions.


4. Colored Tabs!











Colored tabs is one of the new addition on IE8, It allows you to see "grouped" sites within your browsers tab area. They even have violet color!


5. Browsing History Deletion



















Deleting browsing history has been also improved! It allows you to select specific things to be left behind. Usually I prefer to leave some of the informations such as form data & cookies to avoid redundant login activities.


All in all, I can say that IE8 will surely rock the browsing arena, and we can credit Firefox on these development since they really gave Microsoft a big motivation on enhancing features on the browser. It also shows that Microsoft's post-Bill Gates era will surely survive the onslaught of Google and OpenSource community.

TGIF!

It's been a busy month for me, going from one client to another!

But the good thing is , I'm getting used to it, since I am doing the same thing 5 years ago, It's just that my body was "normalized" when I am working at the office. Doing the business and creating the basic foundations is pretty rough, but I'm sure we'll get there, Hopefully!

The first thing that I've done today is update my browser to the latest version (IE8) and based from my initial observation, this browser rocks! Don't get me wrong , I have FIREFOX installed , but there are still issues on compability when it comes to MS products, hehehehe , that is why IE is still my default browser, you can download it here , yes for FREE!

Hopefully , if me schedule will permit me, I'll head to my favorite hangout later, MASSAGE shop!, don't be green on this, since I'm helping our talented blind therapist to make a living, and despite the fact that they are still far from the usual therapists, you'll still enjoy the session since they don't talk to much! which is a very important thing for me, @230 per hour, what could go wrong right?

nfw

I'm not feeling well, since early wednesday.

I catched a cold perhaps outside on a public area, and I'm trying to catch my breath thru my mouth as I'm typing this.

I already made some cocktail medicines with combinations of neozep & ascorbic acid to minimize the "incubation" period of the virus, but seems not working too well.
