Best Safari 5 Extensions

Internet

Firefox was the browser of my choice as Safari was missing basic feature, ability to install third party plugins (extensions).

Apple launched Safari 5 on June 7, 2010 and I decided to give it a try. Safari 5 is way faster than Firefox. Safari 5 also has new feature called Safari Reader. It is a great feature which I use all the time now. I Can’t imagine reading long webpage without it. Most importantly, with Safari 5, Apple opened doors for third party extensions. what this means is anyone can develop plugins to add functionality to Safari 5.

Thoughts on the iPhone 4

Mobile

Being Apple fan, I bought my iPhone 4 on the launch day in Canada. I have been using it for a week now and I am totally in love with it. Few friend of mine asked how it is different than its predecessors, so I am sharing my impressions;

Build and Feel (Hardware):

When you open the box, first WOW factor is its built quality. Very slim form factor with very solid feel when you hold it. It has superior quality glass on front and back. Separate volume control buttons on the left side replaces Volume rocker seen on previous generations of iPhone. Hardware is great with the exception of missing Camera hardware button.
