Internet Explorer The IE team at Microsoft has released the 2nd beta Internet Explorer 8. Contrary to the first beta, which was aimed at developers, this one one is aimed at normal people like you and me. The list of new features and changes is decent, all focused around three themes (marketing alert): "We focused our work around three themes: everyday browsing (the things that real people do all the time), safety (the term most people use for what we've called 'trustworthy' in previous posts), and the platform (the focus of Beta 1, how developers around the world will build the next billion web pages and the next waves of great services)." Go get it.

No, it does not look the same - watch closely the nose and you'll see that it is off by 1px or so. If you switch the tabs quickly (just hold CTRL+TAB) you should be able to see it clearly, with both Firefox and Safari.

And the issue is well known (you think I was the one that spotted it first? Not really ;)
