As I See Tech

HTML5 is the next major iteration of the HTML standard. HTML5 includes built-in support for rich content presentation and enhanced user experiences. It has built-in support to enhance on-line and off-line application capabilities. It also has a new set of APIs that greatly eases the development of advanced web applications without the need for third-party plug-ins. For web developers, HTML5 is generally an important upgrade for the web since Web 2.0 became mainstream.

I use Opera 's web browser. Before Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE), Mozilla Foundation Firefox, Google Chrome and Apple Safari ever came out with tabbed browsers, Opera was already doing it since 2000. This is not the only "first" from Opera that some other web browser makers are claiming to be theirs.

We tend to complicate simple things only to realize later that we need to simplify them back. But once that happens, we know that maturity is in the horizon. Microsoft released the Internet Explorer 9 Beta this week with many positive reviews. Not surprisingly, the browser has been reduced to a simple window for tabbed documents. Although the minimalist design was pioneered by Google via Chrome, Internet Explorer 9's implementation may attract converts back to Microsoft's browser that's specially designed with special features when used on Windows 7 .
