A method, system and computer-usable medium for providing a subscription to an e-mail message thread via a mobile device. A user may subscribe to an e-mail message thread utilizing a mobile device, based on a unique e-mail thread ID associated with the e-mail thread within the e-mail message itself. Updated data regarding the e-mail message thread can then be provided in response to activity associated with the e-mail message thread. The updated data can be provided in the form of, for example, a text message, a text-to-speech voicemail message, and so forth. Additionally, a telephone number associated with the mobile device can be added to a database stored in an e-mail server that manages the e-mail message and the e-mail message thread in order to subscribe to the e-mail message via a mobile device. SMS data associated with the user can also be added to the database. A user is permitted to subscribe or unsubscribe to the e-mail message/thread, in response to a selection of a particular option in the e-mail message itself.

A container browser or a super browser stores browsers and enables a user to launch any stored web browser and display a designated web page from a preferred browser. This container browser can track and bookmark the browsers such that the browsers could be easily selected and initiated. The container browser could present the content in tabbed form, meaning that a tab that the user can click on will represent every open window. Once the user has designated a particular browser to display particular web page, then this information is stored in the container browser. Further accesses to that web site would be displayed using the designated web browser. Other designated web pages would be displayed on other designated web browsers.

Web browser information for the display of the web page is contained in HTML Meta tags of a web page for which access is desired. A web designer may incorporate preferred browser information within the meta tags. When the web page is accessed, the meta tags are inspected for such web browser preference information. When the preferred browser information is identified, availability of the preferred web browser on the particular computing device is determined. When the determination is that the preferred web browser is available, the web page is retrieved and display on the computing device using the identified preferred web browser.
