Thankfully those clever people at Junecloud have also experienced the same annoyance and have created a solution: Demobilizer, an extension for Safari.

Demobilizer takes mobile web pages and automatically redirects them to the full site. For example, m.flickr.com is redirected to www.flickr.com, and m.youtube.com is redirected to www.youtube.com. This can be pretty useful if you like to bookmark or Instapaper pages on your phone, then view them on your computer later. It’s also helpful when someone posts a link to a mobile site but you’re viewing it on your computer.

Inquisitor is a bit like Spotlight for the web. It will autocomplete the words you type into the search box within Safari and you can add more search engines with customized keyboard shortcuts. I love the way it will bring up website suggestions which are more often correct than not, so that I can just click straight onto it and get where I’m going without having to go near the Google results page first. Inquisitor 3.2 was released today (thanks to Chris for the heads-up) with even more eye-candy and useful history indicators as you can see in the picture above.

I had purchased NewsFire RSS reader several years ago and as a paying customer one of the things I got for free was Inquisitor. Because I was having Safari niggles I didn’t get to spend a lot of time with Inquisitor before switching to Camino. I was a big fan of NewsFire up until NetsNewsWire went free. Because I now had two Macs and an iPod touch the NNW sync feature was too much to ignore, but I still think NewsFire is way better and beautifully designed than NNW.

I’m so pleased I moved back to Safari. I love the ability to [instantly and automatically] sync my bookmarks across my Macs and iPod touch which is something I’d be so missing out on if I’d stayed with Camino. 

I then switched to Firefox for the Mac but it’s distinct Mac-look-lack was a turn off for me and then I heard about Camino which is Mozilla power with Mac Style. It wasn’t long before this became my browser of choice and I’ve used it pretty much exclusively since. There are occasions when websites won’t work correctly in Camino such as my online banking or the o2 website which throws an annoying pop-up at me which repeatedly tells me that my browser is out of date, so for these occasions I almost always use Firefox.

I downloaded Firefox 3 last week on release day to help break the Guinness World Record for most downloaded software in 24 hours. I used it briefly but one thing I noticed was how fast it was. Blazingly so, even compared to Camino 1.6. I was also impressed with it’s slick Mac look. I’m glad it’s finally been updated to at least look like a Mac browser. But, I don’t think it’s one that I could switch over to completely. It’s useful for the sites that won’t play ball in my browser, however.

The problem now is the choice: Camino, Firefox, Safari. I *want* to go back to using Safari as it’s much more stable now and I do like the fact that it’s Apple’s own and has a gorgeous UI (fangirl alert!). Plus on testing it out again today I have found it is MUCH faster than Camino. Of course, the other great thing about switching back to Safari on the iMac and PowerBook will be the ability to sync bookmarks across machines with .Mac/MobileMe. So, looks like I’ll be letting Safari back into my affections…

So, what’s your favourite browser?
