  • Switch is a useful browser app if you share your iPad with family members or friends. While other browser apps tend to have a passcode feature to protect privacy, Switch lets you set up different accounts, each with their own bookmarks, history and security. You can even keep tabs open when switching from one account to the other so the browser appears exactly how you left it when you next log in.

      Try using iCab for iPad/iPhone.  It offers dropbox sync and all safari features +.
  • iCab Mobile provides a wealth of nifty browser features. As well as a variety of default search engines to choose from, the app can save and restore form details, filter and block certain URLs, and import and export bookmarks from a desktop computer. If you share your iPad with others or are concerned about your browsing privacy, you can password protect iCab Mobile, and enable Guest Mode, which has limited privileges and its own set of bookmarks.

  • The best teachers that I know always connect with students on some personal level, but they always keep it appropriate.  Is that not the rule of thumb that we could use online?
  • To me, anything that is posted online, you should consider “public” no matter what your “privacy” settings are.
