Internet Explorer 7 has undergone many significant changes since the introduction of IE6 in 2003 with Windows XP. From its completely different layout to the addition of RSS, IE7 has undergone an extensive overhaul that some say will allow it to dominate over the new version of Firefox. Although the new version is set to be released with Windows Vista early next year it still has several bugs that needs to be addressed by Microsoft before its release.
From the new version of IE7 come many aesthetic differences from IE6. Someone at Microsoft got the bright idea of having tabs that allows the user to easily navigate the web (From Firefox maybe?). These tabs have also dramatically changed the appearance of the layout from IE6. In addition to the tabs, the refresh button has been added into the address bar and MSN and other search engine capabilities have been added in by default. Another cool little add-on is that when a user selects a favorite from the drop-down screen it automatically disappears. Not only did Microsoft undergo these significant layout changes, they underwent significant under the hood changes as well.
Along with the new and probably improved outward appearance of IE7 comes the addition and change of many under the hood features. A significant addition is that of RSS, which is a simple XML-based system that allows users to subscribe to their favorite websites. Also, all ActiveX controls are disabled by default which improves security from unverifiable and vulnerable controls. In addition, the well-known and common problem of printing a document and having a portion of the page cutoff has been fixed. The new version of IE7 has changed dramatically from its predecessor, IE6, and with a release date only a few months away the only thing left for Microsoft to do is to hammer out all those bugs.
Internet Explorer 7 has not been released yet due to the large number of bugs that have already been reported. Even a day after its test version release, many people wasted no time in finding several problems with the program. In response, Microsoft has set up a website that allows for customer feedback to try and fix these bugs. More of the commonly reported troubles with the new version include compatibility problems with McAfee security software and trouble installing the browser due to unnamed anti-spy ware and anti virus tools.
There are two versions of internet protocols, Internet Protocol Version 4 and Internet Protocol Version 6. I will quickly brief you on differences in security, mobility, addressing space, speed, ease of administration. And why IPv6 is the successor of IPv4.
In the console-gaming world people know Sony and Nintendo. Microsoft may be the largest and richest software company in the world, but it’s unknown when it comes to console gaming. Microsoft is counting on the Xbox to change that perception. Gamers may not be willing to take a chance with the Microsoft Xbox, even if it is far superior to any console ever made. Nintendo Gamecube is nothing if charismatic. Nintendo’s new machine is half the size of any other console and looks like a toy with its brightly colored plastic shell and handle. It’s destined to be home of such popular games as Mario, Donkey Kong, Pikachu, and Kirby. Nintendo Gamecube seems mismatched as it goes up against the Microsoft Xbox and the Sony Playstation 2 (a multimedia mayhem that Sony says it’s supposed to be “The Future Of Entertainment”). All this makes you think; what makes Nintendo believe it can possibly go up against the ultra-sophisticated Xbox.

Microsoft targets numerous segments of the population of many countries through advertisements of its Xbox. Microsoft, one of the most successful companies in the world, is using its innovations to take over the machine gaming market. Sony and Nintendo have been the gaming powerhouses for many years now, but are now starting to become overshadowed by the success of Microsoft’s Xbox. As long as gaming machines have been available, teenage boys have been the targets of the companies. One new strategy that Microsoft is using is the targeting of all ages and both sexes of consumers. While other companies continue to stay in the young kids and teenage market, Xbox is revolutionizing the target market of gaming systems.

In 1994, Marc Anderseen invented a new way to search and retrieve information from the Internet: the Netscape Navigator. Netscape’s rising sales and the phenomenal growth of the Internet make its shares go through the roof and even before the Company had any profit; it was valued at $2.7 billion. However, the scenario didn’t go that well for so long and a very powerful and ambitious man came into the picture. Bill Gates put 2,000 of his best programmers to create a browser of his own: The Explorer. The battle of the browsers officially started; Microsoft’s share of the browser market increased from 2.9 percent at the end of 1995 to more than 40 percent by the end of 1997, while Netscape’s market share fell to 54 percent.

...s product is so powerful. Opposite Google, Bing cannot gain the same level of popularity simply from word of mouth, so the brand has to experiment with different marketing techniques in an attempt to gain some ground in the market and combat the monopoly that Google has over the search engine industry. In the battle of Google vs. Bing, my opinion is that Bing will slowly start gaining ground at Google’s expense by continuing their marketing efforts and transforming their product into a more user-friendly search engine while slowly improving their brand image. I reckon Google will carry on the way that they always have but will eventually have to start doing something to keep their consumers as Bing’s popularity rises. One thing is sure though, the search engine landscape is going to carry on transforming and being innovated; the future is bright for this industry.
Any user that ventures unto a specific website seeks explicit information, and if that user is unable to find said information, that user is more likely to leave the site and find a site more accommodating to his/her needs. It is the function of the navigation menu to aid users in locating what material is being sought. According to Eccher (2015, p.70), usability and maintainability are two important concerns when creating the navigation menus of a website and that the menu is a key element of effective website design (Eccher, 2015, p. 70). Usability as it relates to navigation bars will be discussed below, while maintainability will be addressed not only as it applies to navigating a website, but also as it relates to keeping website current for users to able to navigate the site.

Society is currently in a period of rapid technological change. Computers are becoming a household item as well as a highly advanced tool for most every workplace. The entire world is interlinked through the Internet and information is being transferred across the globe in a matter of seconds. Computers are getting smaller and quicker and the amount of information they can store is getting larger. In this information society that we are becoming, a new advanced form of literacy threatens to debilitate anyone who refuses to step into the computer age. Computer illiteracy endangers not only the individual but our nation’s economy. Whether you like it or not, computers are the new language and those who refuse to accept this will be left in the dust . Computer illiteracy must be addressed now or there will be a whole new population of specialized illiterates in America.
