Windows 7 - Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) Navigation on Steroids, from the UI to Tabs

Counting the seconds remaining until the release of Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) Beta? You’re probably not alone, considering that there already have in excess of 2.5 million downloads of the browser when it was in developer preview mode, namely not really a full browser.

Come September 15th, and the Beauty of the Web launch event in San Francisco, IE9 will take a major step in its evolution, and one that will bring with it major advances across the table, from modern web standards support, to enhanced performance, improved UX, etc.

Recent information made public by Microsoft Russia revealed that IE9 Beta will kick up a notch the navigation experience from a redesigned UI to augmented tabbed browsing.

It’s extremely interesting to give some extra thought on the details shared by the Redmond company, inadvertently, and still not confirmed officially, navigation-wise.

Granted, the automated translation from Russian, performed by tools such as Google Translate or the Bing Translator is bound not to be fully accurate. Still, the details are better than nothing.

I will have to give this a shot (but not planning to switch )

I have to say, placement of tabs just looks stupid.

You'l probably be able to customize that area.

Don't knock it 'till you try it.

Fair enough.

I said it before and I'll say it again. The Platform Previews have so far been very promising in terms of performance. If they are any indication, the Internet Explorer 9 Beta should be very good.

@ Darician
I completely agree. I have never passed a chance of testing alpha/beta versions when it comes to more popular web browsers, and I'm sure as hell not gonna miss out on IE9.

Thanks @ Crispy for the interesting read.
