Internet Explorer 8 Alpha Screens!


Recommended Posts

Fake - it makes absolutely no sense to use a ribbon interface on a web browser. The ribbon interface should be used when an application has hundreds or thousands of options, which a web browser doesn't.

This is my opinion, and I could be wrong (it does happen).

Fake - far too much real-estate is being taken by the ribbon. Microsoft said they will only push the ribbon onto apps where it makes sense, and in this case - the real-estate it takes up doesn't make sense.

I think there is a lot of sense using the ribbon interface with Internet Explorer, I was reading somewhere that it's Microsoft's new approach to application design - everything will have a ribbon bar.

I think it looks interesting but I just don't think it's real.

Ahaha... I can't believe some people actually think this is real. This is easily the most obvious fake I've ever seen.

Guys, literally look at the bottom of the screenshots - why would they implement a word count and a language selector!? It's just someone taking an Office screenshot and modding it.

look at the IE logo...its obviously not even 'shopped' in...the user decided it would be easier to save a couple of seconds and just fire up paint instead

every single shot has channel 9 coffeehouse in the title bar even if that's not what is open at the time...it's obviously fake.

Fake. I hate the Office 2007 interface so much I might abandon IE this time around, they ruined it in IE7 as it is :x Why would a Web browser have video/pictures/blog commands?
