Microsoft will be launching the first beta of Internet Explorer 9 later today with events scheduled in London at 1830 GMT and in San Francisco with some saying that Microsoft will have a Gorillaz themed event based around the tagline "the beauty of the web". IE9 will be bringing a number of new innovations onboard including a completely overhauled Javascript engine called Chakra and native support for GPU technology to render webpages, something that could alleviate the strain on CPUs especially in the mobile arena. The company will be holding a webcast to present the main features of the new browser alongside with a simpler, sleeker user interface; there will also be a website showcasing IE9 here which promises "a richer, more immersive web). Support for HTML5, CSS3, better interoperability and standards supported as well as significantly improved performance in W3 tests will also be part of IE9. Read more -here-
