Deepfish was an experimental browsing software system for mobile devices that uses a zooming user interface, being developed at Microsoft Live labs. It aims to provide a consistent browsing experience on desktops and mobile devices, display content on the small mobile displays in the same layout as larger displays, and avoid the need to recode the web-page for small displays. When a page is opened, it appears zoomed-out and shrunk, and formatted as would be in a desktop browser.

  • Deepfish was an experimental browsing software system for mobile devices that uses a zooming user interface, being developed at Microsoft Live labs. It aims to provide a consistent browsing experience on desktops and mobile devices, display content on the small mobile displays in the same layout as larger displays, and avoid the need to recode the web-page for small displays. When a page is opened, it appears zoomed-out and shrunk, and formatted as would be in a desktop browser. The user can zoom into the certain areas of the page by using a selection rectangle, and pan the zoomed-in page. Deepfish consists of a light-weight browser client powered by a server back end which does most of the processing. The server streams only the data that is visible at any moment, which improves load times and responsiveness. The browser was available for preview until a limited number of reviewers had participated. Important features are not implemented, including JavaScript, AJAX, cookies, ActiveX controls and HTTP POST. Deepfish was retired on September 30, 2008.
