Microsoft Internet Explorer, the most penetrated Web Browser in market with lion share of 72.2% is releasing Internet Explorer 8 today.
10 reasons why should we switch to IE-8:

2. Accelerators Feature: It will allow a users to highlight text on a website and choose from a variety of functions, including search engines, language translation or map displays.
3. Private Browsing Mode: It allows to people block ads from companies that track their Web surfing habits across a number of sites, a practice known as behavioral targeting.
4. Enhanced Security: Will provide protection against malware and known phishing scam sites.

6. Compatibility Mode: Allows user to switch between IE-7 and IE-8.

8. Enhances Tabbed Browsing: It will keep related tabs together, a feature from Google Chrome.
9. Favorite Bar and History: Helps user to keep better track of their Favorites.
10.Automatic Crash Recovery: I guess no explainations needed for this feature.
