Post WWDC Keynote Present – Apple Delivers Safari 5 ☀
The final days leading up to the WWDC saw a number of sites post rumors about a possible Safari update. Unfortunately Steve Jobs managed to walk away from the stage without ever mentioning this potential update. It appears that Apple did in fact release an update to Safari upon the conclusion of the keynote.
Apple on Monday released Safari 5, the latest version of its desktop Web browser, with a 30 percent performance increase, the addition of Bing search and secure sandboxed extensions, as well as support for more than a dozen new HTML5 technologies.
The most exciting new feature of Safari 5 is the ability to develop extensions, much like what Firefox and Chrome currently offer. This should allow for endless possibilities of expanded support within Safari – such as a native del.icio.us bookmarks extension and much more.
Check out the full list of what is new in Safari 5. This update appears to be one that cannot be overlooked.
