Microsoft unveils new technology for mobile browsing

Microsoft recently unveiled a new mobile technology, called Deepfish, designed to offer mobile users quick and convenient Web browsing that more closely resembles the experience of browsing the Web on desktop computers.

Dr. Gary William Flake, a Microsoft Technical Fellow and the founder and director of Microsoft Live Labs says;

Deepfish provides users with a full “as-designed” view of virtually any Web site on their mobile device and looks as you would expect it to on your desktop, allowing much more of the Web to be easily viewed on a mobile device than is possible today. The interface lets users zoom in and out on the parts of a Web page that interest them in an intuitive way, making it easy to use these large-screen formatted pages on a mobile device. On current mobile browsers, it can typically take up to a minute or more for a Web page to render, however the Deepfish architecture only loads the user-specified portion of the page, providing much quicker page-load times, as detailed information is only retrieved as needed or in the background.

Deepfish is currently only available by invite only to a small number of beta users. Visit http://labs.live.com/deepfish to keep informed of future updates and availability.
