Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Microsoft Windows 10 Will Include a New and Modern Web Browser

— January 22, 2015 — Tech
Microsoft Windows 10 is a next-generation operating system that looks like it will do a far better job at bridging the gap between desktop and mobile systems compared to its predecessors. Windows 10 will include new platforms for phones, tablets and PCs which will be available for free for a year for those upgrading from Windows 8.1.

One aspect of Microsoft Windows 10, which is sure to be greeted with jubilation by many, is the death of the sluggish Internet Explorer. The new system will come with a next-generation web browser called Project Spartan.

Another major talking point is the integration of Cortana -- Microsoft's answer to Apple's Siri -- into computer and tablet operations for the first time. Cortana will help you compose emails from speech and fill in data gaps much like Google Now by making proactive suggestions.

Windows 10 is expected to launch later in 2015 with new computers and phones from Microsoft and partner companies.

Trend Themes
1. Next-generation Computing - The integration of Cortana into computer and tablet operations presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in voice-controlled computing.
2. Bridging Desktop and Mobile - Microsoft Windows 10's new platforms for phones, tablets, and PCs offer disruptive innovation opportunities in creating seamless user experiences across devices.
3. Next-generation Web Browsing - The introduction of Project Spartan brings disruptive innovation opportunities for web browsing, enabling faster and more efficient browsing experiences.
Industry Implications
1. Operating Systems - The advancements in Microsoft Windows 10 open up disruptive innovation opportunities in the operating systems industry by improving the bridge between desktop and mobile systems.
2. Personal Computers - The launch of Windows 10 with new computers from Microsoft and partner companies presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the personal computer industry, offering improved user experiences.
3. Mobile Devices - The new platforms in Windows 10 for phones offer disruptive innovation opportunities in the mobile device industry, enhancing the integration between desktop and mobile systems.
