  The IE8 Favorites Bar
Time: 00:49 EST/05:49 GMT | News Source: Microsoft | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

Hi, my name is Helen, I am a Program Manager on the User Experience team of Internet Explorer, and I’m happy to introduce the IE8 Favorites bar!

New Functionality on the Favorites bar:

The Favorites bar, previously known as the Links toolbar, has been updated with great new functionality that helps you get information from your favorite websites quickly and easily. The new IE8 Favorites bar still has your favorite links just one click away, but also allows you to add WebSlices (new feature debuting in IE8) and feeds to the Favorites bar, facilitating your navigation experience. The WebSlices and feeds on the Favorites bar will check for updates to content on your favorite websites without requiring navigation to those websites.

MS again removed a feature from IE8 that no one noticed...the ability to move/adjust position of the so called Favorites bar. Even with IE7's horrid locked down UI, the Links bar could be moved. Now they've silently removed that ability too in IE8.

Btw, is there any extension for Firefox that adds like IE6-like ability to adjust position of toolbars anywhere just like the user wants?

#1 -- Microsoft has stated that IE8 Beta1 is for web developers and that only small changes have been made to the UI so far. In other words, expect bigger UI changes to come in later betas.

#3 By 8556 (12.210.39.82) at 3/13/2008 7:50:05 AM
Tux: As the article says the change is for "facilitating your navigation experience". Anytime MS talks about "experience" it makes me an instant curmudgeon, as they seem to go out of their way to use the word. Why couldn't they just say "facilitates navigation"?

They need to leave tha links bar alone. It's about the ONLY thing they didn't screw up in IE7.

Looks like they caught that mistake and will complete the screwage in IE8.

The Favorites Bar now has Open In Tabs as the last choice.

YES!!!

That was missing in IE7.

I could care less if I can't move it anywhere.

Sure ... you could move it to one place in IE7 ... along side the "File Edit ..." toolbar. Who cares if you can't do that?

I thought I remember reading that IE8 would have the "ribbon" interface.

#6 -- If you make it a habit of reading unsubstantiated rumor-filled articles and blog posts then yes, you probably did read that somewhere. There's never been any indication from Microsoft that they were moving in that direction.

#7: Substantiate this!

http://community.winsupersite.com/blogs/paul/archive/2007/10/23/internet-explorer-8-preview.aspx

"Microsoft briefly examined an Office 2007-style Ribbon UI for IE 8 but found it to be far too tall. The tallness of IE's top-level UI became an issue with IE 7 even though IE 7's UI isn't that much taller than that for Firefox or IE 6. The Ribbon would have really made it too tall."


#9 By 28801 (65.90.202.10) at 3/13/2008 9:42:21 PM
and this...

http://windowsitpro.com/article/articleid/97860/ie-8-beta-due-in-first-half-of-2008.html

"Microsoft had briefly toyed with an Office 2007-style "Ribbon" user interface, but dropped that idea when it tested unfavorably."

Next time someone posts an innocent question don't be such an ass!

#10 By 17996 (66.235.18.153) at 3/14/2008 2:35:20 AM
You're quoting Paul Thurrott... he often "gets wind" of various "ideas" from within Microsoft regardless of whether the idea has any chance of actually making it into the product. He even said he made the mockup himself with Paint.

I stand by my statement that "There's never been any indication from Microsoft that they were moving in that direction." Indications from Paul Thurrott are quite different than indications from Microsoft.

#11 By 28801 (65.90.202.10) at 3/14/2008 6:58:16 AM
#10: I would tend to believe that Paul Thurrott is just a little more dialed into Microsoft than you.

That said, I'm astonished that the IE development team didn't run their design decisions past you. Heads will roll… Heads will roll!
