Share a Web page from Safari on the iPhone 4?

I spend a lot of time surfing the Web on my iPhone 4 and sometimes want to share what I find with my administrative assistant. On my laptop, I can just copy and paste the URL, but in Safari on my Apple iPhone, I can't seem to do the same without a lot of hassle. Is there an easier way to share a Web page address on the little gizmo?

How do I get "top Sites" bookmarks to stick around in Safari?

I use Safari on my MacBook and have noticed something really frustrating with how it handles bookmarks in the "Topsites" area: they don't stick around! When I quit the app and restart it, the pages I've saved as topsite bookmarks have vanished. What's the story and how do I get topsites to work properly, Dave?

How do I create a bookmarks folder in Safari?

Category: Mac OS X Help

I'm trying to organize the million bookmarks I have on my "Bookmarks" menu in Apple's Safari 4 but can't figure it out. I see "Show All Bookmarks" and various ways to add a bookmark on the menu, but no way to "manage" or "organize" bookmarks. Surely there's a way to do so in Safari?

How do I include a "favicon.ico" on my Web pages?

Category: HTML and CSS

An artist buddy of mine created a little favorites bookmark icon for my web site [they're properly called favicons or, if you want to use the name of the file, "favicon.ico" files] but I don't know how to specify on my pages that I have one of these favorites icons. Can you offer up the HTML I need?
