Sogou-the first dual-core browser in China

After the last June version was launched in 1.3, sogou browser made two major product releases: Last October in 1.4 and April this year in 2.0. as soon as the product was released, the author downloaded and installed the latest sogou browser. After two weeks of experience, he summarized three main features of sogou Browser: dual-core, high-speed, and localization.

I. What are the advantages of dual-core browsers?

As we all know, many software vendors in China are deeply influenced by IE, and ActiveX is used as function enhancement in many web pages, common controls include the security input control of online banking, the certificate USB key, and the text editing control in the office system. WebKit series browsers, represented by Chrome, cannot be used normally. Regardless of the decline in IE market share in the market report, the author firmly believes that at least in China, ie will not be used by anyone. As a result, a strange phenomenon occurs. Almost all of my friends I know installed at least two browsers. In these computers, almost every time I open a new browser, A prompt box is displayed for all browsers: "set this browser as the default browser", which is also consistent with today's browser competition.

Today is the national day of mourning. The purpose is to express the deep condolences of the people of all ethnic groups throughout the country for the victims of the Yushu earthquake in Qinghai. All entertainment activities are prohibited, and all major portal websites are dimmed. IE users will be black and white for a day, and Chrome users will still be able to color.

The author captured two comparison pictures of browsers. The first picture is the comparison between sogou browser (high-speed mode) and IE browser. You can see that the high-speed mode of sogou browser is, the WebKit kernel is used, and color web pages are still displayed, While IE is grayed out. The second figure shows the comparison between sogou browser (compatible mode) and Chrome browser. You can see that the compatibility mode of sogou browser uses the same Trident kernel as IE, the webpage is gray, while Chrome is color.

If you decide to use actual actions to mourn the victims of the Yushu earthquake, switch to the compatibility mode of sogou browser, or turn off chrome and open IE.

 

So, we can make a summary of the advantages of the dual-core Browser: Maybe there is no need to install so many browsers in the computer, and switch back and forth in the high-speed and compatible modes of sogou browser, you can already meet the requirements.

2. High Speed

The high speed mentioned here refers to two aspects: Full-network acceleration and download acceleration for the Internet with Chinese characteristics. Do not confuse the high-speed mode of the browser. The high-speed mode of the browser refers to "the WebKit kernel is much faster than the webpage parsing speed of the Trident kernel ". Let's talk about network-wide acceleration. The host-hosted readers must be familiar with the terms "dual connect" and "three links". This is the Internet with Chinese characteristics. They must access any host quickly within China, it is a very difficult task, unless the other host has three links. The company where the author is located has a research institute in Harbin. colleagues working there use the internet exit of CERNET and can hear complaints such as "no connection or card connection" every day, colleagues working in this department use the internet exit of China Mobile tietong or the word "card ". Since the full promotion of sogou browser, my colleagues have consistently reported that "the speed of webpage access has greatly improved ". After using the full-network acceleration mode of sogou browser, whether the recipient's host is China Telecom or China Netcom, the webpage opening speed is about five times faster than before, and the user experience of CERNET is better, frequently-timed out webpages are now basically smooth.

The second High Speed refers to the download speed. The sogou browser has a built-in multi-threaded Multi-image download mode. The speed of downloading small files is very fast, which makes IE users feel quite different. If you download hundreds of MB of files, you will find that the download speed of the browser is comparable to that of the download tool. As today is the national day of mourning, sogou's music and video download websites have closed their searches, and the author cannot compare the download speeds of various browsers. If you are interested, try sogou's high-speed download function.

Iii. Localization

After several lectures by Dr. Tang Aiping, he learned the word "localization". In the words of Dr. Tang Aiping, the local browser we developed is a browser that conforms to Chinese user habits.

The localization feature of sogou browser is very obvious. After reading the update history of sogou browser, you will find that. The following lists several important localization browser functions:

1. Keep the boss away from the boss

"Ctrl + ~" The browser Panel can be quickly and completely hidden, and friends who fill in, view pictures, and steal food during work hours do not need to install additional boss keys. However, it is suggested that you should focus on work during work hours. Of course, after work is done, relax and relax.

2. Adjust the browser to vibrate

The pop-up window of many websites is a video. It is quite unpleasant to open a webpage and the advertisement words are played by speakers. When the unit starts, the first thing to do is to mute the computer; otherwise, the background music of Happy Farm will ring through the office. The page mute function can mute the audio on the webpage, while audio other than the browser is not affected. In this way, neither the video conference with my colleagues nor the webpage viewing of my meetings are affected.

3. Enhance Proxy Server Functions

You can configure multiple proxy servers for the sogou browser, with advanced features such as Agent Server Management and speed measurement. I don't need to talk about the functions of multiple proxy servers. Now, the proxy server resources are very tight. They are all saved in browser settings, which is better than storing them with a notepad, the browser automatically selects the fastest proxy server, saving the trouble of manual speed measurement and manual modification of proxy server settings. I can finally access the android development website normally ......

4. webpage

Each time, You Have To Open QQ, which is rarely used by the system. With the web page, in addition to convenience, it is more conducive to saving the web page content. In any case, Web pages are much easier than browsing them offline and storing other web pages.

5. Video Extraction

The author is an out man. New videos circulating on the Internet are always known after being banned. If all friends use the sogou browser, the next time they spread new things, you don't need to upload the URL. You can send the video directly.
