Revisited an old browser, Omniweb.

I like it. It started off as a browser for NeXt.

Give it a try if you haven't ever used it. I have only had problems with one site so far, and that was andrew Sullivan's site, but I have trouble with it on iOS too. There's some nasty script that slows everything down.

a lot and frequently.

I thought maybe they had stopped updating and upgrading it, so I switched back to safari.

Maybe they have done some work on it. Will try it again and let you know.

Every now and then I try Opera. It's nice for a change.

I wonder if iCab is still around. It was ugly, but worked well.
