the master list o fbookmarks. Some maybe "loose," and many more are prob-
ably organized into folders,or even folders
within
folders. Tapping a folder
shows you what's inside, and tapping a bookmark immediately begins open-
ing the corresponding Website.
Creating New Bookmarks
You can add newbookmarks right on the phone. Any work you do here is
copied
back
to your computer the next time you sync the two machines.
When you find a Webpage you might like to visit again, tap the
±
button
(upper-left of the screen). The Add Bookmark screen appears. You have two
tasks here:
Type a better name. In the top box, you can type a shorter or clearer
name for the page than the one it comes with. Instead of "Bass, Trout,&
Tackle--the Web's Premiere Resource for the Avid Outdoorsman, "you can
just call it "Fish site."
The box below this one identifies the underlying URL, which is totally
independent from what you've
called
your bookmark. You can't edit this
one.
Specify where to file this bookmark. If you tap the button that says
Bookmarks>, you open Safari' shierarchical list of bookmark folders,
which organize your bookmarked sites. Tap the folder where you want to
file the new bookmark, so you'll know where to find it later.

.it gives you a bare-
bones, superfast version of the Web, provided by google for the benefit of people
on slow connections (like eDge). You can even opt to hide graphics for even more
speed. Yeah, the iPhone's browser is glorious and all--but sometimes you'd rather
have fast than pretty.
