9 to 5 Mac has published a video to their YouTube account showing a walkthrough of Safari on the iPad.
Some observations:
- I absolutely love the bookmark bar. I must have missed this feature because I hadn’t seen it before. But, with more screen real estate comes great features like this.
- Google suggestions looks really handy and will help alleviate some of the frustrations that will come from the software keyboard.
- The text replacement feature is going to be huge — I can’t wait for it on the iPhone.
A week or so ago I was pointing something out to my girlfriend on our MacBook. After pointing it out I did something stupid, I placed my finger on the screen and attempted to scroll to the top of the page to point something else out.
Users — especially iPhone users — are ready for this type of interaction with the web.
