http://tidbits.com/ The latest version of Safari offers some (but not enough) interface polishing and coordination with Mountain Lion features such as Notifications and the ubiquitous Share button, but it drops support for RSS feeds. When the most notable upgrade feature is a retooling of the address field, you suspect it doesn’t deserve its new version number. en-us Copyright 2012 TidBITS Publishing Inc.

I say "I believe" because I'm not in Lion either, and checking my Take Control of Safari screenshots doesn't help because it was for Safari 5, not Safari 5.1, which had a bunch of changes and maybe tweaked that and I didn't notice. (Am updating - Take Control of Safari 6 will be ready soon - and I know I had to redo all sorts of screenshots!)]]> http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15410 Sun, 19 Aug 2012 22:54:25 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15410 http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15409 Sun, 19 Aug 2012 22:47:54 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15409 And, you other readers - I'm not being sarcastic. I know of Tom's expertise, and I stand corrected.
(Or, considering spinal surgery, I lie down corrected.)]]> http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15408 Sun, 19 Aug 2012 22:43:51 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15408 (I first saw this mentioned on Ted Landau's MacObserver site, but it was quite a bit after I had written this article, so too late to include.)]]> http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15399 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 22:01:36 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15399 http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15234 Mon, 06 Aug 2012 22:09:02 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15234
My download "jump" is accurate.

Perhaps there's another browser that does what Safari once did?

I used to frequently use that and the Activity window to see how sites were put together.

There is still the option in Preferences under Advanced to add the Develop menu. This does add the ability to use the Web Inspector. But it's not the quick and easy option View Source was.]]> http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15152 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 04:40:12 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15152 http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15151 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:42:36 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15151 http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15148 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 21:28:52 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15148 http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15143 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 14:17:29 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15143 http://db.tidbits.com/article/13153?rss#comments_15140 Mon, 30 Jul 2012 07:48:19 EDT http://tidbits.com/article/13153#comments_15140

When browsing, however, and I come across a site that offers RSS and I think I'd like to follow this site, being able to click the 'RSS' feed button and have it redirect to my external program is exactly what I want. Removing all RSS operations from Safari was the real mistake. Thankfully there is a (beta) 3rd party extension that adds back the ability to get an RSS feed from a site (Subscribe to Feed 1.0b1) by Red Sweater.]]>
