Internet Explorer 9, in short IE9, is yet another much expected release from Microsoft Windows. But people believe this one has lots of new stuffs to deliver. IE9 will definitely be a lot better than Internet Explorer 8. Below I mentioned some of the new features of the Internet Explorer 9.
#1 – HTML 5 Support : HTML5 support is the most powerful addition I believe. HTML5 features added in the new IE9 will include h.264 video, Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG), and lots more.
#2 – New JavaScript Engine – Chakra : It runs JavaScript in the background of your computer on a separate CPU core. Provides much faster JavaScript rendering and a better overall internet experience.
#3 – Direct X Video Acceleration : High Definition Video and new graphic capabilities are reproduced.
#4 – Better Usage Of Hardware : Normally browsers are not that much optimized when considering hardware usage. Internet Explorer 9 is going to change that.
#5 – Enhanced CSS3 Support : Internet Explorer 8 was not supporting CSS3 earlier. So we can expect some major improvements.
#6 – Developer Tools additions : Internet Explorer 9 is going to provide some new features for Developers. They include Console tab, Network tab, UA switcher tool and Real-world performance measurement.

i downloaded it last night , ddnt use it yet … looks great from a review
I really like the new Download Manager in IE9, btw the beta is released today. Go ahead and grab it 🙂
I hope they get the new release right this time…every time I try a new version of IE it crashes on me or is buggy as heck.
if IE becomes like Firefox , it would be the best change ever … though very unlikely
Excellent top features but Advanced CSS is my favourite allowing me to do more advanced customizing….
Even I didn’t check IE 9 But I am supposing that its would be great , In IE 8 Which problem I faced is that JavaScript creating much more problem specially If the website is using old Java Script Version also the Some CSS code not working even its looks fine in Mozila, Crome and Safari
I´m just waiting to see how this new update for the IE works. Hope they can improve the older features.
eagerly waiting to see whether the developer tools are really helpful as in chrome…
it seems like microsoft is ready to beat firefox and chrome…
Waiting for IE new realse .
More than this IE 9 should have less pop ups and better default settings.
Looks like their sole concentration this time is on making websites look beautiful with css3 and html5 support.
Hoping that IE gives some relief for web designers by making IE 9 on the same pane with various other browsers!
seems like the new ie will be something different but no one is sure about anything what will happen.Any ways Good luck IE9 for your future.
I am interviewing the lead architect of IE 9 tomorrow, will be having a demo of IE9
Microsoft’s approach towards IE has changed a lot with the advent of IE9, they agree about their flaws in their blog and are more transparent about the development of IE9. Hope they make it!
IE 8 was good compared to others, loved the Tab Highlighting feature, but, ultimately Chrome seems to be the best bet around.
I hate IE 🙁
IE tries to top the browser market. But yet its not making it. I wish it all the best. I think its on cloud nine expecting IE 9 🙂
