Internet Explorer & Changes in Browsing
Using Internet Explorer 9 since the beta was released, it's been interesting to see how my use of the internet has changed.
I've pushed myself to using Windows Live Mail online, which is also fantastic since they just pushed HTTPS for all use. My primary websites are pinned along the bottom, including Hotmail, Facebook, DailyBooth, Engadget, DeviantArt, plus a ton of my other regular websites. It's interesting to have them down there, though I tend to pop in a couple tabs on each window on occasion, for the other websites that don't have fav icons, or just sites I don't usually visit.
The problem I have is that I now have a cluttered taskbar, which is both great and not great. Website's available in one click, but also as cascading icons across the bottom. At the same time, I wish a lot more actually utilized the jump list, Live Side ( http://liveside.net ) being the only one which shows updates in the list that are directly clickable.
Overall, interesting change. The only sad thing is I have to use other browsers for select websites, such as the schools, which only appears to work in Firefox ... for some reason.
