This is the unintended introduced design of the new Internet Explorer 9. The original screenshot wasn't online for long but long enough to copy it from the official Microsoft Russia website by Microsoft-expert Mary Jo Foley.
Because the original screenshot is in veeeery poor quality, I decided to rebuild it via Photoshop...
So here it is..
If you need it for any news releases, blogs or something, feel free to use it. But please make sure that this Screenshot it just a mockup from the original Microsoft-screenshot and it's built by me. Please link me back if you use it. Thanks
I see longhorn remnants in the nav-bar; the back button is bigger than the forward button, just like the longhorn mock-ups. I bet that it won't last long in the IE9 mock-ups either.
Frankly, as I find IE8's tab-bar a bit lacking in the space department, it had better not stay in the nav-bar of IE9. There's hardly enough room for the one tab displayed here, let alone the five or six I sometimes have open. Don't misunderstand me; it is a cool idea, but unless Microsoft ripped Chrome's Omni-Box (at least I think it's called that) completely I'm going to want a separate search bar. And there ain't room anywhere for that.
But, this is a static shot; it dosen't show you very much. So, who knows? Maybe I'll be switching back to IE some day.
By the way, that wasn't a critique of your work so much as it was of Microsoft's design. It is a good job, though. Just as simple and plain as it ought to be.
Yeah, Longhorn reminder was the first thing I seen
I think the tabbar ist just there to show that the tabbar can be placed anywhere (like a few months ago with Firefox.. but they removed that feature)...
We'll see on sept. 15th ^^

I look forward to your take on it.
