[1] - And I haven't even mentioned the iPhone and Apple TV both of which I covet with the full force of my bank account. While I'm no doubt a happy owner and user of Apple hardware and software, I'm not a go-out-and-buy-everything gadget freak and extreme Mac fanboy. That said, these days, I'd probably let Steve Jobs design my underwear...
I signed up for Renkoo, the new, supposed Evite killer currently in beta. As always, I did so using Safari in part because I prefer an extremely fast and seamles user experience and partly because of a masochistic and nostaligic desire to relive my days as a Netscape user being told that my browser isn't supported.
True to form, after logging in, I got this message (emphasis is mine):
Even if we are not able to fully support your browser, you will be able to see and use all of the site except for Invites. This is because we employ an advanced technology called Comet on the Invites page.
An advanced technology called Comet? Renkoo is supposedly all Ajaxy like Vox, whose original code name was Comet. Is Vox's lack of Safari support haunting me?!
Oh the delicious irony...
Those are some intrusive ads... *sigh*
So I just found out that the downside of the stripped down WYSIWYG editor is that you can no longer type links into the comment textarea. What's more, the link icon doesn't even show up if you're using Safari.
So before, whenever I wanted to write a post, I had to open up Firefox. Now whenever I want to comment, I have to do so as well.
As someone who lives in Safari all day, I can honestly say that sucks...
