The Automatically Mark Feed As Read When ReadingĪ Feed option automatically colors feeds you've read differently from unread feeds to help you
#Feeds web slices update#
Often, feeds and Web Slices update automatically. The options in the dialog box that opens are largely self-explanatory. Under the Feeds and Web Slices group, click the Settings button.Click the Content tab in the dialog box that opens.Click Tools on the Command Bar and choose Internet Options or choose Tools → Internet.IE8's Address Bar sorts its results by category (such as History and Favorites) and searches through RSS feeds.You can tweak a couple of settings to change how RSS feeds behave. On the other hand, the Awesome Bar includes icons at the far right that let you quickly add a page to your Favorites or to subscribe to any RSS feeds on a page you're visiting IE8 doesn't have those features directly in the Address Bar. You can also edit the list - for example, by deleting entries from it, so that the next time you type in that text, those entries won't appear. It sorts its results by category (such as History, Favorites and Feeds) and searches through RSS feeds. However, IE8's Address Bar has features that Firefox's does not. When you open a new tab, instead of getting a blank screen, the page opens with a variety of useful links.
Both also look at page titles for matching text. Both of them don't just list recently visited sites as you type, but also grab URLs from your bookmarks. Like the Awesome Bar (officially the Smart Location Bar) in Firefox, the IE8 Address Bar now adds functionality well beyond merely providing a place to type a URL. The Address Bar in the beta has received a significant makeover, and it's been much improved. (We'll get to those features later in this review.) With Tab Groups, all of your related pages are automatically grouped next to one another and color-coded. When you open a new tab, instead of getting a blank screen as you did in IE7, the page opens with a variety of links, allowing you to reopen tabs you've previously closed, reopen all the tabs from your last browsing session and use several new IE8 features, including InPrivate Browsing and Accelerators. Microsoft says that it is considering adding this feature to the final version of IE8.Īnother subtle improvement is aimed at better navigation and browsing. Instead, you have to reopen each tab individually. One useful feature is missing: the ability to reopen an entire tab group. From the same right-click menu, you can also reopen individual tabs that you've closed and perform actions on individual tabs. Simply drag a tab to another group, and it takes that group's color and becomes part of the group.Īnd wait, there's more: You can right-click on any tab to control its entire group, including closing the group, duplicating the group and removing the chosen tab from the group. You can also easily move tabs between groups. In this way, all of your related pages are automatically grouped next to one another and color-coded. In addition, the new tab is given the same color as the originating tab. When you open a new tab from an old one, the new tab is placed directly to the right of the originating tab, rather than to the right of the right-most-opened tab, as in IE7. People who frequently use multiple tabs will welcome the introduction of what Microsoft calls Groups.
