Microsoft has finally released IE8 Beta 2 for public download.
Unlike Internet Explorer Beta 1, the new IE8 Beta 2 is focused more towards users than developers and brings a whole new set of extremely unique features for consumers and enterprises.
Microsoft has been trying hard to regain its lost dignity after other browsers like Firefox and Opera smashed Internet Explorer in terms of usability and features. As it seems, Internet Explorer 8 might be powerful enough to hold back and stay stable in the ever growing browser wars.
IE8 focuses on everyday browsing, safety and platform and introduces some amazing features such as Tab shortcuts, Accelerators and InPrivate Browsing. I will be covering the features in detail in an upcoming post.
IE8 Beta 2 can be downloaded using the link below. Currently it supports 32bit and 64bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, and Windows Server 2008.

Now that you’ve had a few days to check out IE8, what do you think? I’m Jen, part of the team at Me.dium. A few days ago, we joined EBay, Amazon, Facebook, Digg and Yahoo as a featured partner for IE8’s Beta 2 launch.
We are thrilled to be part of IE8, as our goal is to make the internet a more social place. We’ve got a lot of exciting things going on like our What’s Hot WebSlice, Me.dium Discovery Accelerator, and Visual Search, (you can check out our search homepage at http://me.dium.com/search.)
