At today’s World Wide Developer Conference<\/a>, Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced the availability of a public beta version of Safari 3 for both the Macintosh and<\/i> Windows<\/a>. Apple’s goal is to increase Safari’s already-respectable market share, probably to induce more Windows users to switch to the Macintosh.<\/p>\n

Importantly, Safari 3 successfully runs Zillow.com’s main web site, as well as the MarketLinx\/Tempo MLS system. These were two of the more notable sites that failed to work properly with past versions of Safari. The inability to run the MLS system in Safari had stymied our own plans at BloodhoundRealty.com to completely jettison Windows and the kludgey hardware it runs on.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This is our house on Zillow.com. The Zestimate is off by $123,397 or so, but the site is running flawlessly in Safari, where it has never run before.<\/p>\n

There’s more. Last week, Jobs said that the operating system on the iPhone will be a full version of Mac OS X. Today at the WWDC, he said that the iPhone will be running a full version of Safari.<\/p>\n

The implication? As I discussed when the iPhone was introduced<\/a>, with MLS access, this will be the best Realtor phone ever.<\/p>\n

Guess what? This is looking like the best Realtor phone ever…<\/p>\n

I’ve found all kinds of cool upgrades in the Safari 3 beta just in the course of writing this post. Download it and play with it yourself<\/a>. Not only did your Windows machine just drop off the edge of the universe, your laptop, whether Windows or Mac, may have gone with it.<\/p>\n

Further notice:<\/i><\/b> Richard Riccelli points out that pre-release software always entails a risk. If you can’t get yourself out of trouble, better not to get in. On the other hand, Saft<\/a> has been updated to work with the beta. And while the Windows wizards have been trying to knock Safari down, over 1,000,000 people have downloaded the WinSafarai beta.
