Safari 3 - world's best browser?

Stamped: 5:34 pm

Apple claim that their browser, Safari, is the world's best. They've now made it available for windows. I downloaded it. But it didn't work. I removed it. Downloaded it again. Still didn't work. This afternoon the apple updater had a new download for Safari. I downloaded it for the final time. It works!! I'm giving it a go. They claim to be the fastest and use the least amount of resources. Firefox is good... but it has been getting clunkier and clunkier to run.

If you know any short cut buttons - let me know them in the comments. (esp the one that is ctrl + tab in firefox which moves from one tab to the next)

    I downloaded it last week, used it for a day and then went back to firefox - it doesn't do live bookmarks - which is how I do RSS for the blogs I read most. (yes Dave - one of those is yours...) Unless I'm missing something, I couldn't make Safari do it.

    However, Firefox has been freezing on me a lot lately - so I am in the mood for something new... top

    try safari help and type in "shortcuts". If you were on a mac, I could give you them all, but you're sadly not.
    I've been using safari for years now and love it. This new beta version is slightly better. Before the beta arrival, Firefox (for the mac) was known as far better (I couldn't get used to it) but I think it's now comparable. Enjoy top

    hello, it's anonymous guy again, I've just read the comment from "samr".
    Safari does do live bookmarks but I could only explain how to use them (it's not hard) if you were on a mac. Again, I'd suggest using safari help. They're definitely there!! Enjoy top

    P.S anonymous - I realise that it does process RSS - it just can't do it the way that firefox does - with an easy drop down menu in the bookmark bar. If you can show me how to make a live bookmark like that - then I'll go across to safari and give it another go top

    Hard core mac user from way back here. I love Safari but have been a FF convert for a while now - especially for blogging. I'm not sure memory use is really a major concern for most computers these days with 1GB+ of RAM (not me tho'). I think Safari is pretty but you can get skins for FF to look the same. Oh well?!? top
