going on safari
I have been playing with the new beta of the Safari web browser for about 2 weeks now. 3.0.3 I think...
Anyways, it has finally replaced Firefox completely. It works with all the banking sites I use, with my online money things I deal with and with my online pay stub viewing site.
The transition is complete. I can drop Firefox and happily go on Safari on the Mac. I just prefer the integration on the Mac, the speed, and the look n' feel.
Double Speak Disclaimer: This statement may be rendered completely false in the near future when Firefox 3 comes out with it's funky new technique of managing bookmarks but I am pretty sure my "web" of interest is only about 20 sites large these days so managing bookmarks is not a high priority on my list. Also, Firefox 3 may be just cooler than sliced toast so I may start using it again in the future.
There, just to cover myself in case I look foolish in a few months :P

New bookmark management
How is the new Firefox supposed to handle bookmarks?
I only use FF for development and testing because the user experience on OS X is horrendous (slow rendering, poor integration into the operating system and damn! it's just so ugly) that it isn't much fun.
by using Places
It's putting a light-weight database in place of the flat file that is the current method of bookmarking. It is also bringing in the notion of tagging and more complete searching functionality. At its core is a rethink of how bookmarks/history work in a browser.
