Internet Explorer 8.0 One of the Features - Web Slices

Web slice, slice of your page.

What if everytime a new video is available and it will notify you automatically, without you having to log on to http://login.skyquestcom.com to check from time to time?

What if you are always kept posted by your Web Browser, when there is a new incentive available in your country?

How many times a day do you check for updates to e-mail, weather reports, sports scores, KL stock quotes, auction items(e.g.Ebay) email and so on? Until now this was a manual process, where you had to go to those sites to check for changes or new information.


By using Web Slices in Internet Explorer 8.0, you can keep up with frequently updated sites directly from the Favorites Bar without logging in to http:///www.ebay.com.my or http://login.skyquestcom.com anymore! Isn't it great?

If a Web Slice is available on a page, a green Web Slices icon(See below image) will appear in the upper-right hand corner of the browser. You can then easily subscribe and add them to the Favorites Bar or delete Web Slices that are no longer desired.




When new information becomes available, the Web Slice will become highlighted. When you click on the Web Slice in the Favorites Bar, it previews relevant information. Clicking on the preview takes you directly to the site for more information.





The concept behind is something like your Google Reader(RSS Reader).

So, developers! What are you waiting for!?
