"Here are three alternative browsers that I use regularly to perform tasks I think are necessary for educational use and general use that I can’t do using Apple’s default browser."
KF: Summarising this article:
iCab - Quick, allows video download, multi-search engine access, some social media integration.
Diigo Browser - utilises Diigo tools - annotation, bookmarking, etc. API integration with some web favourites. FREE http://itunes.apple.com/au/app/diigo-browser/id432838105?mt=8
