whats with hate towards safari?
Safari starts up WAY WAY faster then firefox, and safari loads pages just as fast, or in some cass faster then firefox.
In features department all firefox has over safari is plugins and skins. But i can live without those, so why all the hate against safari? i use it every day.
safari reading history of some websites is dog slow, and i see no improvement in recent webkit
in features dept. firefox has over safari is plugins (extensions) and skins? please. just compare the features out of box. no extensions involved, firefox is still miles ahead of safari.
single window mode?
advanced tab functions?
find as you type?
save downloaded files to different folders?
remember multiple passwords/username for same page?
full-page zoom?
cross-tab drag and drop of elements?
pop-up blocker whitelist?
anti-phishing protection?
EV support?
keyboard navigation (press F7)?
url bar search auto find your most visited/fav site?
one-click bookmarking?
download search?
and why? when extensions and themes are officially supported and promoted by firefox, you think it deserve no emphasis?
As per one slashdot comment:
The Safari performance improvements are coming in Safari 3.1, not yet available to the public. To see them today, you have to be running current WebKit nightlies. The difference between the new WebKit builds and vanilla Safari 3.0.4 is pretty dramatic.
if you believe /. then there are some others there too..lol
be cautious about expectations of safari 3.1, javascript improvement is drastic, but don't equal that to the whole experience. its only a .1 update for a reason.
