Internet Explorer 7 Launches This Month


According to the IE Blog, Internet Explorer 7 will be released officially later this month. After more than a year of beta testing it, this is a welcome sight for me. In case you haven't heard of any of Internet Explorer's new features, here is a link to Microsoft's official site that lists it's improvements.

Most noticeably, however, users will see it has tabbed browsing and a built in search box like FireFox. It has advanced RSS feed features, and much improved printing system. It also provides more secure browsing due to revamped security measures built into it.

Now, don't get all excited too fast. It still isn't a perfect world for Internet Explorer 7. Do I mean the software is bad? Nope. I mean some websites still need to be updated to accommodate the software and the way it renders sites. So, that may mean some of your favorite sites still may not work in Internet Explorer 7 properly. If your afraid of this, hold off for a few more months.
