Safari Gains Ground in Browser Wars

Apple’s (AAPL) Safari made the biggest gains in September among mainstream Web browsers, according to new research released today by Net Applications Inc.

Although Microsoft’s (MSFT) Internet Explorer still dominates the category, Safari’s market share rose nearly 7.7% for the month and now represents better than 5% of the traffic on the Internet. Firefox’s share rose slightly (2.15%) and now carries nearly 15% of the traffic. Explorer continued its slow fall, drifting down more than 1% for the month.

Net Applications samples browser data from visitors to a network of
some 40,000 websites around the world, a method that tends to
skew results toward computers that are heavily used and away from those
that are gathering dust.

The most impressive growth in the latest numbers was the nearly 17% jump in “other,” a category that includes such browsers as Opera, Netscape, Opera Mini, Mozilla, Danger Web Browser, Konqueror and PlayStation Portable Internet Browser.

The following table, derived from Net Applications’ research, summarizes their results. For more detail, you can go to their website here. For a report on their operating system numbers, see Mac Installed Base Hits 6.6% in September.

iPhone JAVA programs:bookmarklets

Necessity is the mother of invention.

Here is the explanation by Steve Kangas.
Many can be used with Safari. SV


How do they work?
Each bookmarklet is a tiny program (a JavaScript application) contained in a bookmark (the URL is a "javascript:" URL) which can be saved and used the same way you use normal bookmarks. The idea was suggested in the Netscape JavaScript Guide.

JavaScript has been used by page authors on millions of webpages; Bookmarklets allow anybody to use JavaScript - on whatever page you choose (not just your own page).

Bookmarklets are simple tools that extend the surf and search capabilities of Netscape and Explorer web browsers.

Bookmarklets are free.

Bookmarklets allow you to:

* Modify the way you see someone else's webpage.
* Extract data from a webpage.
* Search more quickly, and in ways not possible with a search engine.
* Navigate in new ways.

...and more. Over 150 bookmarklets are available.

Bookmarklets work on all platforms (Windows, Macintosh, Unix,...)

You do not have to download or install software to use Bookmarklets.

Run Super Mario on your iPhone

Apple's architecture does not allow non-Apple people to write and run programs on the iPhone. However, hackers are hacking on that architecture by attempting to run non-iPhone programs on the iPhone. Apple only allows to run code from the Safari browser. But as you can see in this stream, hackers are already able to run Nintendo games on the iPhone. However the performance is not pretty but it's a start. informationweek.
