Internet Explorer 9 Screenshot Tour: It's Got a Completely New Interface

Join us for a tour of the features in Internet Explorer 9.

To complete the installation we did have to reboot our machine for everything to be installed correctly.

New Look, Features, and Performance

The interface is very slick and clean looking now.

No longer does it feel like an outdated and bloated internet tool like in IE 8 and before.

For now we went ahead and chose Ask me later.

It already seems to open faster than previous versions of IE.

This is cool as it doesnt get in your face while trying to read a site like before.

This is worth checking out after installing it.

Its slick, presented very nicely, and almost has a Zune HD Interface experience going on.

Then if you want it will open a new tab and bring you directly to the site.

Here you could see by default its not ridden with a bunch of needless clutter.

The interface is very clean and attractive.

you could use Bing or other providers if you wish.

When you throw in in your search term you will see your History and Bing suggestions.

This is a cool feature that will give you easy access to your most used sites.

Here is another look at it with large icons on the Taskbar.

With IE9 open you might get the page icons to the Taskbar a couple of ways.

One is to drag and drop the site icon.

Here we are bringing Fox Sports down to our Taskbar.

Then simply Pin to Taskbar.

Or you might actually drag the entire tab down to the Taskbar as well.

Although this feels a bit more cumbersome.

For example here were bringing an entire How-To Geek tab with use across our screen to the Taskbar.

Either way the results are the same and you might pin any specific page to the Windows 7 Taskbar.

In this Twitter example we can start a new Tweet, Direct Message, Search and more.Very cool!

Here is an example of the Facebook icon pinned to the Taskbar and using its Jump List.

We have IE 9 closed and we can still jump into the social sites main features!

What Happened to IE 8 Features?

If you wondering where the old IE 8 features are…well theyre still around, just hidden.

This latest version of Internet Explorer is quite amazing versus previous versions.
