2012 is going to be the year of Windows Phone ... because the bloggers say so.
Microsoft launched Windows 10 earlier in the year at its Build conference, a version of the platform that will unify the Windows versions across all form factors, bringing the same experience whether you are on PC or smartphone, or indeed anything else. The software will land at the end of 2015 and according to ZDNet, Microsoft will kill one of Windows’ most famous companions.
According to the website, Microsoft will kill off Internet Explorer when Windows 10 launches, debuting a new more streamlined browser instead. Maybe called Spartan, this browser will be faster and lighter and will be more like Google Chrome of Firefox.
It’s rare in this industry that such a defining name is killed off, but Internet Explorer has suffered a declining reputation in recent years. Microsoft has made the right moves (mostly) to change that but it seems the name is now lost because people think it is a slow browser. It is worth noting that IE is still the most used web browser.
