And, the fastest browser is...

What is the fastest browser in the world? According to Zimbra, Safari is, though it didn't beat out Firefox by much. Both Safari and Firefox were roughly twice as fast as Microsoft's IE 7.

The bottom line is great code. Great developers write code that ports well to diverse platforms.

If you have, or are looking at getting a smart phone, you have to check out this demo… Android preview.
