Safari 7 & the New Webkit Inspector

  • 10 Jun, 2013

Yesterday I wrote about how I was hoping for an awesome new Safari 7 at WWDC. The good news is that it was talked about, but it’s those little features like reopen closed tabs and private browsing that I won’t know about until I get to use it. I was informed however that the upgraded […]
