Internet Explorer 7’s tabbed browsing
December 9th, 2006Tabbed-browsing is actually quite cool. I was skeptical once, thinking it was a different analogy to how, say, Microsoft Word or Excel handled multiple documents. Yet, the ability to quickly and easily hop between different pages while waiting for others to load is excellent – as is being able to load a tab group in one hit.But what does really bug me about Internet Explorer 7’s implementation is the terrible, terrible delay between opening a new tab page and when the address bar gets itself into sync.
The number of times I’ve opened a new tab, typed in an address – just to have it open back on the first tab – is beyond belief.
Microsoft! Get the address bar focus in sync!
