Online Petitions and Safari
Posted January 17th, 2003 @ 12:41am by Erik J. Barzeski
When the hell has an online petition ever worked? Here's the latest: "please, please, please Apple add tabbed browsing to Safari." I've never seen a petition work, and frankly, I think signing one immediately makes you look like a bit of a weenie. Will Apple add tabs to Safari? Maybe. Will this petition help? I really, really doubt it. Ugh. Here's something I would support: D'Arcy Norman's approach.
Here's a "bug" I submitted to Apple at the encouragement of Brad:
I would like to see Rendezvous bookmark lists. In other words, if I have a PowerBook and a desktop Mac on the same network, I should be able to hit up bookmarks on either machine. Also, iSync should be used to synchronize bookmarks across computers (and provide a backup). To my .Mac account AND my iPod (in case I'm at a friend's house and I want to get at my bookmarks).

Everyone who reads this should make a similar bug. The more the merrier. =)

Doesn't Safari already support Rendezvous bookmarks?

No, the rendezvous feature that's in it now is for servers. It'll show any web servers that are on your network.

Rendezvous bookmarks is a heck of a good idea. Just having gotten a Power Book, I suddenly have the fun of jugging two sets of everything, and something like this would help quite a bit.

The most you can lose to this Bookie is $8. Pursuant to a quick conversation some people had on this site, Bookie is a Rendezvous...
