1. Explorer 10

1.1. Pros

1.1.1. 1.Microsoft definitely knew its reputation of being the slowest browser around, and this update seems to at least get parity with the competition.

1.1.2. 2. IE10 actually respects web standards, which is another big step in the right direction

1.2. Cons

1.2.1. 1. IE has that same tiny little button, but instead of giving it a cozy, 75-pixel wide home next to the address bar, it forces it on to a toolbar that extends the entire width of the window.

1.2.2. 2.Microsoft’s confusing suite of services (Bing, Live, Hotmail, Outlook, Xbox Live, etc.) is the backbone for integration in IE

3. HTML

3.1. Pros

3.1.1. 1.HTML5 elements we can increase the semantic value of the web page as the codes are very standardized

3.2. Cons

3.2.1. 1.Another ugly fact about HTML5 is that because of licensing issues, rich media has to be compressed in multiple formats in order to be compatible with most browsers
