Submission + - IE8 Beta released to public (microsoft.com)
Tim writes: English, German, Simplified Chinese, and Japanese versions of Internet Explorer 8 have been released for public beta. New features include accelerators, which provide instant context menu access for a number of common tasks; automatic crash recovery, which prevents a single page's failures from taking down your entire browser; and browser privacy, a feature that didn't make Firefox 3.
I'm primarily a FF user, and have been using IE8 at work (MS) for the past few weeks. It's a definite improvement over previous versions, and brings a lot to the table that FF requires extensions for. Give it a spin, submit feedback, and help keep all browser makers on their toes by facing each other's competition.
