Safari Beta for Windows : Are you really using it ?

Its been two days I downloaded and installed Safari beta for windows. Apple has released a press release that Safari beta has 1 million downloads in just 48 hours. That's quite a figure to show the kind of interest generated about safari among internet users. But there is a an other side of the coin too. I have installed safari but I was not happy with beta release for obvious reasons and switched back to FireFox within couple of hours. There are number of users who have switched back to their older browsers. I have seen the buzz about Safari for windows on various community websites and forums. But vast number of users have been dissappointed with Safari. I feel beta release should have been open for selected users only.

Apple is known for reliable and quality products than their competitors. But 1 million download may not tell you the real picture. Apple has already released a patch to seal the bugs. But I am sure in the days to come there will be lot of patch releases for Safari to really get stable.

Whats New On Yahoo Mail

Well yesterday ( 31-Aug-06 ) as I was checking my yahoo mail. I saw a small little surprise. It was a cool new feature on yahoo mail. The mails were expandable right at the pane without opening the mail actually. Its quite similiar to treeview but without child nodes. The mail opened in new format quite quickly. Surely yahoo users will like this feature. I guess it is in testing stage as when I reopened it in the evening, the feature was not available. I am really looking forward to this cool new feature.

Update :

I have figured it out why its happening. It happens in Firefox extension. It only supports Mozilla Firefox browser. This cool extension has been developed by Viamatic. This extension converts Yahoo! Mail into Ajax enabled web account.

Firefox user can install the extension from here.
