Cyberspace iPhone Browser Has Merit

Safari on iOS is a tiny miracle- such a great browser with such a tiny footprint. Why would any other browser be needed?  There are a few things Safari won't do that I am starting to appreciate.  One is embed Instapaper so I can save webpages for consumption when I don't have signal, like on a plane.  Well, there is a workaround for it, but it is like working with the apps and patches and convolution of the old Windows Pocket PC.  Another issue is webpages that look like this:





DP review is a place that has no mobile version, and is as hard to read as a website can be.  I am not a web designer, so I don't know the merits of this look, but as a web reader using a mobile device, I think it is fussy, cluttered, hard to enjoy, and confusing.  Using it, you are as likely to be clicking on an ad as a review link.  Planned? Probably, but not appreciated.




This is what it looks like through the Cyberpace browser.  Another feature of this browser is that you can also jump back to full web view, if you want to catch the ads and clutter.  Most compelling to me is its full integration with Instapaper and the DuckDuckGo search engine, complete with the shortcuts available in a handy keyboard that is easy to use via a switch.  Cool stuff, once I figure out how to use it!
