              via Dare Obasanjo | MSN Toolbar get its Tabs and IE gets its GreaseMonkey - Twice!

            • Dare Obasanjo aka Carnage4Life - MSN Search Toolbar Adds Tabbed Browsing to Internet Explorer

              The newest version of the MSN Search Toolbar adds tabbed browsing to Internet Explorer. You can check out a screenshot if you're curious to see what its like.

              I've downloaded, installed (after first having to uninstall and restart my machine - I thought the days of having to restart everytime you installed or uninstalled something were over... not that this is the first time by a LONG shot, but annoying none-the-less...) and am now using the tabbed features. Not as cool as MyIE2/Maxthon or my personal favorite, Avant, but for an MS supported product its sufficient and... ITS TABBED BROWSING IN IE!!! (Again, we had this with MyIE2 and Avant so I'm not sure how much excitement can be broadcast here...)

              However... What Dare follow's up with *IS DEFINITELY* something pretty cool...

              I think it's way cool that the MSN Search Toolbar team has added this functionality to IE. First Trixie and Turnabout, and now tabbed browsing added via the MSN Search Toolbar. It definitely goes to show exactly how extensible IE is as a platform.

              Cool! I had no idea these even existed. Then again, I've been underground, for the most part, for the last week or two so I'm not surprised that I'm clueless from several fronts.

              Dare closes things off with...

              Of course, I still am interested in seeing what Dean and his merry band have planned for IE7.

              While I'm not sure how I would feel if I were on the IE team and was refered to in the collective "Dean and his merry band" I too am curious to see what becomes of the new version of IE. :) Besides, I think its safe to say that Dare can get away with saying pretty much whatever Dare wants and, for the most part, be Ok. Me... I think Dean and his merry band would suddenly find reason to spend some of their preciouz little dev time hackingz at ]]><XSLT:Blogz/>, leavingz a few merry cheerz of their ownz. ;)

              Cheerz :)
