A couple of weeks ago, Apple released a version of its web browser, known as Safari, that works on Windows PCs. I've been using it on and off ever since, and I'm very impressed. It's only a beta release and there are definitely some bugs that still need to be resolved, but it loads pages very quickly and makes the web look simply beautiful. (Apparently, the appearance is due in large part to the font Lucida Grande, which comes with Safari as standard.)

So if you have ever wondered why some Mac fans rave about Apple's superior design and if you're curious to see how they view the web, download Safari 3.0 and start Surfin' Safari today!

I love the warning that preceeds the pop and rock listings in The New Yorker:

"Musicians and night-club proprietors live complicated lives; it's advisable to call ahead to confirm engagements."

I think I'll use the same excuse when I next can't make it into work.
