At the WWDC, Apple also announced an update to its web browser. The new Safari 5 is touted as the world’s fastest browser and comes with some new features to make both consumers and developers happy.
Safari 5 includes the new Safari Reader that allows the user to read the multipage article in a single page for a quick, uninterrupted reading with options to enlarge, print or share the article. The browser also features the Nitro JavaScript Engine that runs JavaScript 30 percent faster than Safari 4 and faster loading of webpages with DNS prefetching.
For the developers, Safari 5 now brings more HTML5 features and has Safari Developer Program that allows them to customize and create Safari 5 extensions on web technologies like HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript.
