Incremental Search of Safari Really makes sense

Anyway, I’m first time blogging on a product. I’m a hard fan of Apple and Google and I could not resist myself from posting the incremental search feature of Safari. It’s really makes sens. Again new fresh  ideas are coming from Jobs’ magic world. Safari may have many advantages and disadvantages. But one of the coolest thing I’ve ever seen an any desktop or Internet application is Safari’s Search.

If a document or website are so congested with rich text contents,gadgets, adds. Among this, if I do a search what could be the result? The browser may be showing the result highlighted, but from the eye-catching colors and contents, sometimes it’s difficult to find the highlighted search result. Safari does things in a different way. Just see the pic below!

The above file is the screen shot of apple Safari’s Search. It will put a gray light dark overlay and the search result will be visible in it’s position and all the other text will covered behind the transparent layer. The current search result will highlight in the orange color with a small animation. It’s really cool. You should try it… :)

Update: Fixed many Typos, grammar mistakes, rephrased some sentences. Sorry and thanks for the  pointing out the mistakes through comments.

    I also recommend you get somebody to proof-read your articles before you post them.

    For most screenshots the best encoding to use is PNG.

    Ignore the people nagging about your spelling and grammer. If that had any sense, they would have taken four seconds to click the “About Me…” link and see that you are in India and so English is not your first language. I am sure that you already know that your English is not perfect and do not intend this blog to be published as a book. Maybe they should try posting something in Hindi if they are so great…

    The comment about using PNGs is correct though, JPGs for photos, PNGs for screenshots. ;)

    Dear Bob,

    Thanks for the information. I always welcome comments because I’d like to make things perfect as much I can. I don’t know Hindi because my mother tongue is not Hindi. Never mind put your comments
