Microsoft has unveiled Deepfish, a new technology that has been designed to offer mobile users a quick and convenient Web browsing experience. In fact, the main aim of Deepfish was to provide users with a Web browsing experience that resembles the experience of browsing the Web on desktop computers. On first-come basis, Microsoft will be making a limited technology preview available to the public.
Desktop like browsing for mobile devices- Deepfish provides users with an experience very similar to that on PCs. You will actually get to view virtually any Web site on a mobile device as it would appear on a PC. This interface allows users to zoom in and out on parts on a Web page that ma interest them.
Besides, on current mobile browsers where it takes typically up to a minute or even more for a Web page to render, Deepfish architecture only loads the user-specified portion of the page, providing quicker page-load times.
Earlier, mobile browsers required content to be tailor-made to the mobile device, losing a lot of value in today’s rich page layouts. It also required developers and designers to perform additional work, and create Web pages especially for mobile browsers. Thus, today, most browsers use a single-column format which dynamically reformats existing pages by repositioning the content to fit in the limited screen size, causing a “crush” in the page layout. Here is when Deepfish comes in, as it allows users to zoom and out of a particular part of a Web page.
In order to download the new Deepfish technology preview as well as to receive updates from the Deepfish team blog, you will have to visit the ‘labs live’ website. Since this preview is being provided on first-come, first-serve basis, once the limit is reached, all access will be closed.
