[...] Mac OS X 10.5 “Leopard” will hopefully have some of the changes that I documented as my wishes for Leopard. Namely the changes I asked for in Safari, Mail, iChat, and the Finder. [...]

Colin: I think their small-ish userbase for Camino lets them think, “Oh we’ll just release it when it’s ready” sort of deals.

They’re always tinkering away at it of course. The nightlybuilds are hugely improved. =)

Anywho, nice list of things there.

[...] Inizio con Safari il quale, secondo Colin, dovrebbe avere una nuova funzione, chiamata Bookmark keywords, per permettere di aggiungere parole chiave (tipo dei Tags) ai propri preferiti e un’altra, Searchable history, per permettere di effettuare ricerche all’interno della Cronologia. Le funzioni che invece, sempre secondo Colin, andrebbero migliorate sono l’icona degli Rss (a lui infatti non piace che rimanga sempre blu e presenti la scritta RSS anche quando magari Ã¨ stato rilevato un Atom), la possibilitÃ di settarlo come browser predefinito e Multiple feeds detection, vale a dire una opzione che dovrebbe permettere di rilevare nello stesso sito web tutti i Feed disponibili invece di uno solo. L’articolo su Safari termina con un’altra speranza, vale a dire quella di poter utilizzare gli editor WYSIWYG (presenti nella maggior parte delle applicazioni Web, come, per esempio, Wordpress) anche con questo browser che, molto spesso (l’avevo notato anche io) non li supporta.

Hey Sarah - about time you commented! Lurker! Yeah, I was happy to find that feature as well. I’m almost ready to jump back out of Firefox I think. Maybe. I think. Maybe.

Wow, I hadn’t seen that history search function - I must remember that one … says she who visits, oh I don’t know, a gadzillion pages every day.

Nathan: Wow. I’ve never seen that - thanks for bringing it out. This seems like a huge UI problem to me. Again, thanks.

I agree with all, but it is possible to search the history in the current release. You just goto the bookmarks screen and click on history. There is a search box at the bottom. It’s not intuitive, which is the bug.

Shaun: Having tried Camino in the past I still can’t get myself to use it. Perhaps its the “update every year” mentality or - the fact that it doesn’t support extensions.

A small note about extensions in Firefox. I find it slightly ironic that I use Firefox extensions to help it bring Firefox’s features in accord with Safari’s. The features I require literally are so small, that I should just switch back if for nothing than the space and speed improvements. Something to think about.

Wow, nice list. I am a Camino user myself. However, I do like Safari but wish it did not lack the features you listed above. Hopefully with the upgrade I’ll be able to use it once more.

Camino allows the Bookmark Keywords as well. Thank you for bringing that to my attention. I just added some keywords to my favorite sites. Saves a bit of time there.

Also, Safari does not allow for the Gmail Chat which I use constantly. Firefox supports Gmail Chat as well, but it does not look too pretty.
So, for right now its Camino for me…
