Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) beats Chrome and Firefox

Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 8 web browser has not been available for that long, and already it is beating Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome in 7 out of 10 areas. If you do not believe this, then Microsoft has launched a new website called “Windows Internet Explorer 8: Get the facts.”

According to Ars Technica, this is a strange way for Microsoft to promote IE8, where it compares itself to the two open source browsers. The new website gives you a number of reasons why you should install Internet Explorer 8.

Do not think that Microsoft will be getting it all its own way. Google Chrome is only a new browser and there is already a second version out, much better than the first. As time goes on Google will be using all of its knowhow to make the browser even greater than what it is now.

As for Firefox, we reported in an early post that Firefox 3.5 will be ready for download by the end of the month, and with 5,000 new features, it is certain to take the battle to IE8.
