Apple Launches Safari Extensions Gallery

Apple launched the Safari Extensions Gallery for it's Safari web browser. In June, Apple opened up the extension functionality to developers prior to this public launch--giving developers some time to create extensions by the time of the official launch.

Extensions are built using HTML5, JavaScript, and CSS3--the technologies that Apple has been championing for the web development.

An important security note: All the extensions are sandboxed, which means that they are unable to access a user's private information or transmit communications with other outside systems.
