Microsoft Corp. today announced the launch of the latest version of the world’s most-used browser with the release of Windows Internet Explorer 9 in 40 languages at an event at the SXSW Interactive (SXSWi) conference. Internet Explorer 9 is Microsoft’s most-downloaded browser beta of all time, with more than 40 million downloads, and it has already gained more than 2 per cent usage on Windows 7.

Already more than 250 top sites from around the globe are taking advantage of the capabilities in Internet Explorer 9 to deliver differentiated experiences to their customers.

Top Sites and Designers Take Advantage of Internet Explorer

Internet Explorer 9 is designed to bring sites front and centre through Windows 7, enabling a more immersive, more beautiful Web experience. Features such as Pinned Sites and JumpList enable people to put their websites directly on the Windows 7 Taskbar, as though they were native applications, and then to quickly and easily perform tasks related to those websites, such as check their inbox, change music station, accept a friend invitation or see breaking news.

    I, personally, am looking forward to the pinned sites feature. I really feel that this is finally an attempt by Microsoft to be innovative. They’ve been playing catchup for too long. I can see people using the pinned site to access things like Blogger, Google docs, Facebook and even Microsofts own Office Web Apps. It will make cloud computing seem more like using a computer and less like surfing the net.
