Internet Explorer

As the War of the browsers moves on at the end of 2008, big plans are in store for 2009 for IE8 and Google’s Chrome. For what seems normal for Microsoft, they have once again put a delay on IE8.

According to the MS Blog, the release of the final candidate of IE8 has been delayed now until 2009. An exact date is unknown.

We will release one more public update of IE8 in the first quarter of 2009, and then follow that up with the final release.

No surprise there eh?

The call to action now for the technical community is to download beta 2 (if you haven’t already) and let us know about your experience. Next, please prepare for final testing with public update so you can let us know – quickly, loudly, and clearly – if you find absolutely critical issues with it before the release of the final product.
