Windows 10's new browser 'Spartan' let's you search with your voice


Windows 10 is planning to introduce new browser named 'Spartan'. It is reported that it may not just a leaner, fresher and substitute for Internet Explorer. It could have some new features that other browsers don't have. 

Some sources claims that Microsoft voice-guided Cortana assistant that is still available for Windows Phone users, will be available in new browser 'Spartan' and the OS (Windows 10) too. Much like Chrome's "OK Google" feature, you can open new browser tab and ask Cortana to look up something whether it's a website or something else, reported. There is also talk of pen based annotations for websites that you can share with others through cloud (Microsoft's OneDrive).

It is expected to have the looks of a Firefox or Chrome in 'Spartan' and also with some wider range of extension apps. Microsoft is keeping Internet Explorer around for backwards compatibility, but this will apparently be the main browser.
