The updated Safari browser, Safari 5.0.1, supports extensions and small widgets that can be added to the browser by the users to customize their web surfing experience. So browsing on the Safari now will be even more interesting and amazing. The extensions available at the launch included small widgets that display live web feeds, simplify downloads, or filter web content depending on an individual’s preferences. There’s even an Amazon extension which allows users to add products to their Amazon wish list at the touch of a button. The new Safari Extensions Gallery will showcase the best browser widgets.
“Safari 5 has been a big hit, and user response has been fantastic, We’re thrilled to see so many leading developers creating great extensions and think our users are going to love being able to customize Safari.” said Brian Croll, a vice president of product marketing at Apple.
The New York Times has built another extension for the Safari browser that will make it simpler for people to keep with the latest news while surfing. “We think our Safari extension is a great way for readers to get all of the latest breaking news, stories, blogs and columns they want to see,” said Denise Warren, a senior manager at the newspaper firm. “While you browse other sites in Safari, our extension checks for updates and slides in new headlines and thumbnails so you won’t miss a thing.” There’s even an Amazon extension which allows users to add products to their Amazon wish list at the touch of a button.
The browser needs no restarting after installing the extensions from the extensions store and the widgets gets updated automatically. It is upon the users wish whether they want the individual extensions on or off. So if you are browsing this page on your Safari browser and have not updated it yet , then get it updated and enjoy the extensions gallery !!
