Poisson d’Avril – New Web Browser – Deepfish
Poisson d’avril – French for April Fool
For those whose French is a little rusty, Poisson d’Avril is the equivalent of April Fool. Poisson is of course the French for Fish.
Some might therefore ask whether naming a new mobile web browser, Deepfish, and launching it close to April 1 was perhaps an attempt by Microsoft to delude us all. However it is for real. Here is what you’ll find on the Deepfish website:
The Deepfish Technology Preview enhances existing mobile browsing technologies by displaying content in a view that is closer to the desktop experience. Our zoom-able interface and cue map allow you to quickly access the information you care about over the web without ever losing track of where you are.
Note : Deepfish is currently only available by invite only to a small number of beta users. Please visit http://labs.live.com/deepfish page to keep informed of future updates and availability.
