IE8 -- determines the future of Microsoft

Since the Windows 95 era, IE is one of Microsoft's core products. This is also a key product that Microsoft uses as a software empire to govern the entire Desktop System and connect to the Internet. However, the rapid development of the Internet era has weakened the original desktop system, followed by a large number of pure Web-based application systems. It seems that Google, Adobe, Sun and other vendors have joined forces to attack Microsoft. In addition to the emergence of rich client technology systems, browsers have become the core means of accessing the Internet in the future. New technologies and products are emerging and have begun to seriously threaten the future of the software empire.

 

Since the download of Firefox 3 released this year has set a world record, Microsoft has experienced great pressure. Therefore, as early as two years ago, Microsoft has been preparing for IE 8, therefore, the newly designed Internet Explorer has changed the traditional overhead and adopted a more open technical system.

 

Unexpectedly, Google, which had previously kept a low profile in the client field, suddenly announced the release of its browser product Chrome this month, which surprised almost everyone. Strictly speaking, this can be seen as a conspiracy of Google, a great conspiracy intended to subvert the status of Microsoft's empire.

 

In this context, the historical tasks undertaken by IE8 become more important.

 

In order to explain the browser field from technology, industry, and other aspects, we will plan a special topic, analyze the current situation of the browser field, and interpret Microsoft's strategy to maintain dominance, hope to get your support!
