Internet Explorer 9

Getting started with Internet Explorer 9

Windows Internet Explorer 9 has a streamlined look and many new features that speed up your web browsing experience.

Watch this video to learn about what's changed in Internet Explorer 9 (2:25)

Use the new browser controls

The first thing you'll notice when you open Internet Explorer 9 is the simplified design. You can find most command bar functions, like Print or Zoom, when you click the Tools button , and your favorites and feeds appear in Favorites Center when you click the Favorites button .

Favorites Center

Tabs automatically appear to the right of the Address bar, but you can move them so they appear below the Address bar, as they did in previous versions of Internet Explorer. You can always show the Favorites, Command, Status, and Menu bars by right-clicking the Tools button , and then selecting them on a menu.

For more information about basic controls, see:

• Show or hide the Favorites, Command, and status bars
• Change the location of tabs in Internet Explorer 9

Pin sites to the taskbar

You can access websites that you visit regularly by pinning them to the taskbar on yourWindows 7 desktop.

Pinned site

Pinning a site is simple: just drag its tab to the taskbar—the website's icon will stay there until you remove it. When you click the icon later, the website will open inInternet Explorer.

Whenever you open a pinned site, the website icon appears at the top of the browser, so you have easy access to original webpage that you pinned. The Back and Forward buttons change color to match the color of the icon.

For more information about adding and removing pinned sites, see Pin a website to your taskbar.

Click the address bar to select your search engine from the listed icons or to add new ones.

Search in the Address bar

When you search from the Address bar, you'll have the option of opening a search results page or the top search result (if your chosen search provider supports the feature). You can also turn on optional search suggestions in the Address bar.

This great infographic, provided by Mozy, shows us the answers to these questions and more. Let us know what you think about the infographic in the comments, along with any questions you may have.

The Future of E-Bikes: Nicolai/Gates/NuVinci Concept Electric Bike

Nicolai/Gates/NuVinci Concept Electric Bike

Breaking news from the Taipei Cycle Show going on now: Checkout this concept electric bike from Nicolai/Gates/NuVinci!  It is a bike that has been designed around the new Bosch electric bike kit that positions the motor to provide assistance at the cranks, the Gates belt drive that eliminates oily chains (and maintenance), and the NuVinci “gearless” rear hub drivetrain.  All I have to say is it’s clean, simple, and I want to ride one!
Let me break down a few features that makes this concept bike so cool (and check out all the pictures!):

• The battery and motor are positioned low and in the center of the bike so it should handle well.
• The wheelbase of the bike is like a traditional bike so it will handle well.
• The frames has a lower top tube to make it easier to get on the bicycle.
• The motor assists through the cranks so the motor can take advantage of the gears of the bike and not “bog down” too much on the hills.
• The belt drive does not require any oil and will be less likely to collect dirt.  No squeaky chain, no oil on the pants and less bike maintenance!
• The NuVinci rear hub drivetrain makes shifting the “gears” super easy and you will never “slip” a gear.  Here is more info on the NuVinci drivetrain.
• All the cables are integrated into the frame; slick!

Well this is still a concept e-bike so no word on availability yet, but the estimated price is €2,600 – €3,200 ($3,680 – $4,530).
Here are some more pictures of this cutting edge electric bike and below is the official press release with more details on these innovative companies:

NEWS FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE  Gates Carbon Drive™ Unveils Concept Pedal-Assist eBike Using Fallbrook Technologies Inc.’s NuVinci® N360™ Advanced Drivetrain and Bosch eBike System
Taipei Cycle Show, Taipei — March 16, 2011 – Gates Carbon Drive (Gates), a division of Gates Corporation, and Fallbrook Technologies Inc. (Fallbrook) today announced the presentation of a benchmark concept eBike, featuring Gates’ CenterTrack™ belt drive system, Fallbrook’s NuVinci N360 drivetrain and Bosch’s eBike system.
Gates’ Europe technical mastermind Karlheinz Nicolai, known as a non-conventional designer, researcher and developer of benchmark setting products like the Smart Pedelec and the Grace e-motorbike, has spearheaded the combination of these three individual and synergetic systems to produce this advanced Pedelec.
Nicolai/Gates/NuVinci Concept eBike – Feature Highlights
·    To achieve full integration of the battery, the down tube is divided into three parts with the battery inserted from below.Composite or plastic side panels can cover and achieve a cohesive design requirement.
·    With this special battery integration, the top tube can be lowered, achieving a Mixte frame with a sports look LadyGeometry.  For all weather and everyday commuting the eBike can be equipped with any protective and practical accessories like fenders, rack, lighting, etc. A MTB application requires additional dirt and debris protection covers for the battery.
·    The electric motor is fully integrated into the frame (rotated 45 degrees up).
·    The location of the motor unit enables a short rear triangle and compact chain stay section and offers plenty of ground clearance.
·    All cables and wiring are fully integrated into the frame.
Gates’ Drivetrain Revolution: Lighter, Cleaner, Stronger
Gates’ new CenterTrack drive leads to a 20 percent more tensile strength, a slimmer profile and the most advanced dirt- and debris-shedding compared to conventional bicycle chains. “The CenterTrack is a quantum leap forward for belt-drive technologies. It offers all the clean, quiet and strong advantages of our existing drive trains but with an even higher level of performance,” said Todd Sellden, Director of Gates Carbon Drive Systems.
Wayne Lumpkin, former head of Avid, inventor and one of the most innovative thinkers in the bike industry, adds: “CenterTrack makes cycling easier and more enjoyable. Being the most robust bicycle belt-drive ever, lower maintenance is guaranteed.” The slimmest ever produced pulley and the slender profile makes it simple to integrate with drive trains such as the NuVinci N360.
Perfect Pedelec-Player: NuVinci N360 Drivetrain
Perfect for use with pedal-assist bicycles, the NuVinci N360 features an infinite number of ratios available within its nominal 360% ratio range, giving riders a shifting experience unlike any other. The NuVinci N360 CVP enables cyclists to easily maintain an optimum cadence regardless of terrain, and makes shifting as easy as adjusting the volume on a radio. The system includes a durable, permanently sealed hub that is maintenance free and requires no adjustments or regular servicing.
Chris Vasiliotis, NuVinci Product Manager, said, “With the NuVinci N360, shifting is easy even under high torque pedal-assist conditions, and there are no ratio gaps, missed shifts, shift shock or noise.  Riders feel comfortable shifting at any time – without the penalties of indexed geared systems. The simple, seamless NuVinci eBike experience can result in extended battery life, reduced motor wear and, ultimately, increased range.”
Power Up With Bosch eBike System
The Bosch eBike system has captured the spotlight since its introduction at last year’s Eurobike.  Thanks to the versatile motor positioning, this system offers the perfect solution for any type of bicycle – including sports or casual bikes. The software allows for optimal customization, plus the drive unit can be operated in one of four different modes – including eco, tour, sport, and speed – each suited to the rider’s preference. “This enables bicycle manufacturers to tailor their products according to their selected target audience,” said Rainer Jeske, Senior Vice President Bosch eBike Systems.
Bosch also invented its own battery system which draws on the company’s experience of producing exceptional lithium-ion batteries and chargers for its power tools.
