Microsoft said yesterday it is planning on releasing yet another test version (Beta 2) of its Internet Explorer 8 (IE 8) Web browser in August.

In March this year, the company released IE 8 Beta 1 offering Web developers/designers a preview of the latest iteration of its popular Web browser. Also in March, the company revealed some of the new features IE 8 sports: for instance 'Activities' that lets you highlight text on a Web page and then take that passage to another Web service.

Microsoft said the upcoming IE 8 Beta 2 would be targeted more at ordinary Web users, and that it would have almost all of the features of the final-version IE 8 browser. Microsoft has given no official release date yet for IE8.

I have been using IE 8 Beta 1 occasionally. To be honest, it sucks. Crashes very often. I love Mozilla and Opera. I like Safari too but embedded Gtalk in Gmail doesnt work in it..
