I just stick to Google... as the vast majority of my searches are related to other people's forum posts, I reckon I'm doing my bit to confuse the heck out of their profiling systems smile

The new reader function in Safari 5 is excellent.

Downloaded today and it looks and feels good.

However I have had it hang on me twice today where I had to force quit. This is something that did not happen with the previous version!

[re: billford] [link to this post] 		 
Not a fan at all; tried it out last night and it's still slow as hell, and I don't like the UI at all. Not a patch on Chrome.

The new reader idea is a good idea (even if it's stolen from a open source project), but implementation wise doesnt work. By the time the page has fully rendered I've read a fair bit of the article, defeating the point of the whole idea.

I love MobileSafari, but Safari itself seems to be slipping further and further behind Chrome, which is funny considering they share the same rendering engine.
