    Apps Speech Central - Web on Apple TV

    Apple made an interesting decision not to include Safari on Apple TV, but the reason is pretty obvious - the text on the web would be too small to have a really good experience. However, many people still want to stay connected to the web while using their Apple TV. Speech Central offers a...

    Any Reason to Use TFF Over WebKit?

    OK, this isn't really a problem, kinda just asking for opinions. I noticed that in my web browser poll, the top browser was TenFourFox. For me, at least, LWK is much faster. So, how come so many of you use TFF over WebKit? @eyoungren told me it was because TFF was more customizable. I'm curious...
