(Notice how webkit is reported as Safari (same in the menu bar (which is extra confusing if you happen to have both open at the same time!))Īs it happens I recently restarted my computer so I don’t have Safari 4 also open, but that’s the exception rather than the rule.

CLICKTOFLASH SAFARI 10 WINDOWS
At the time of writing I am running the latest build of webkit as my primary browser, if I ask it to quit (the only way you can find out how many windows and tabs you have open) it reports back: Yikes! How Many Webpages? As a prolific internet consumer I have grown into the habit of having many windows open, which have in turn many tabs open. I regularly and bitterly complain about the shortcoming of my browsers. Now just the other day I was looking up a business on the internet and needed the telephone number and I was thinking how great it’d be if this were implemented in Safari on the iPad (or on my desktop too!) then I could just add all this information to an existing contact or a new contact pretty much instantaneously…

I have over a 1000 contacts in my address book, but even then there are gaps, missing addresses, phone numbers, etc, which I can now easily add from a contact. Add to an existing contact which brings up a list of your contacts and away you go: Create a New Contact from the information it’s discovered, which leads you to this:ģ. Open in Maps, which finds an address for you in a matter of seconds:Ģ. Just click and hold on the address details you are given three options:ġ. Now with the introduction of the iPad data detectors have taken on a whole new form in their beautiful implimentation of the the Mail on the iPad. It just works, although I mourn the fact that it’s not spread much beyond a bare implementation in Mail (a very useful one at that though).

It is one of the most unsung and brilliant of Apple’s innovations with OS X.
