recently started to release Google Wave. During their demo video a few
months ago, they tried to show the iPhone web app but it wouldn’t work.
Engadget recently made a video showing a little bit of the app. Here’s
the video.

YAY! It is that time of the week again…time for a new QuickTip! I promise I only have a few more Safari tips and then I will move on to a new category! Remember if you would like to submit a quick tip just email QuickTip@appleiphoneschool.com.
QuickTip – When in Safari, you can quickly zoom in on images and columns of text with just one tap (well, one double tap)! If there is an image in a web page that you would like a closer look at, just double tap on the image and it will zoom in on that image. You can then double tap on the image again to zoom back out to your previous zoom. This is also true for columns of text. The majority of web pages tend to have more than one column of text so, if you would like a closer look at a certain column (and the ability to read it better) just double tap in that column. However, be careful not to tap on a link! You can then double tap about in the column to zoom back out. A very simple but very handy tip and so much faster than pitching to zoom! I use it all the time! Screenshots below.

Adobe is actively developing a Flash player for the iPhone according to web site Flash Magazine—now all they’re waiting for is the “okay” from Apple.
But Steve Job will decide when it will be released….it won’t be a full version of flash because the iphone’s proccessor is not fast enough to support the full version.

iPhone’s Safari browser is by far the best mobile browser I have used but it isn’t perfect and one of issues is that it crashes quite often.
Based on this Apple discussion forum thread it looks like I am not the only one facing the problem.
If you are also experiencing the iPhone Safari crashes then you might want to checkout the workarounds to fix or prevent it from crashing after the jump.
Apple might have would have fixed some stability related issues in the latest firmware. In my case, I am running iPhone firmware 2.1 but iPhone Safari still crashes.
Rebooting your iPhone (Hold Home+Lock until the Apple logo appears, about 8 seconds). This can help reset some apps that may be running in the background.
Try clearing the Cache, Cookies and History. To do this, go to Settings-> Safari-> and tap Clear Cache, Clear Cookies and Clear History.
As per this Apple discussion forum thread, some iPhone users have also reported that turning off Javascript stops the crashes, however I am not sure how many users will like the option of surfing with Javascript turned off.
Apple fixed the problem where iPhone apps crashed frequently in iPhone firmware 2.1 but the issue of Safari crashes are still observed in the latest iPhone firmware.
These are just workarounds and not a permanent fix, lets hope Apple fixes some of the stability related issues with iPhone Safari in iPhone firmware 2.2.
Does Safari crash on your iPhone? Tell us if any of workarounds mentioned above helped or let us know if you have figured out a way to prevent iPhone Safari from crashing.
