IE close to being Firefox? Is IE8 ready to go head on with firefox? My initial use of the IE8 Beta version shows a lot of improvement. The first thing I've noticed about it is the smooth text on the sites. But there are some problems with some textbox controls. For example, the title textbox of this post's editor is enlarged from one-line to 20-30 line textbox (wordpress editor only). Despite these minor issues, it looks like this time I am switching back from Firefox to IE.

One of the best features of IE8 is the integrated Debugger tool. This is an easy way to debug test applications if you are a web developer. This will eliminate lots of the guessing games in the development process of web projects.

And do you love the Restore Session feature in firefox? Yes, you guessed it right! IE8 has it!

Installation of IE8 to Windows XP SP3 went smoothly. No problem this time. Learn more...
