I played with it for a few hours last night. Installation was smooth and is remembered all my IE7 settings as it should. A quick trawl through my bookmarks showed everything working ok, although I've just realised that I didn't try online banking.
The Accelerators are great and I spent a while customising them away from the MS defaults to the services I use more frequently. The 'recommend me similar sites' function is pretty cool, as is the ability to get notified if the list changes. In theory this could be a nice way to keep up to date with new sites, but I guess it will need to be tested over time. Overall, I'd say I'm glad I updated. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:owner- > [email protected]] On Behalf Of Mr I Forrester > Sent: 19 March 2009 20:31 > To: BBC Backstage > Subject: [backstage] IE8 ships today > > http://backstage.bbc.co.uk/news/archives/2009/03/ready_for_ie8.html > > Generally the view is very positive from Mix09 but it would be... > However there is lots of thoughts about people real experience of the > web when they already have weird activex stuff installed already. > > Cheers, > > Ian > > - > Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
