A web browsers text finder is one of those helpful features that saves time and makes searching for specific content very easy. Just about every browser has a text finder, however, Safari seems to be the only one that includes the number of matches found. This to me is one of those duh… usability features that the other browsers like Firefox and IE seem to have overlooked.

Why is showing the number of results helpful you might ask. Plain and simply to tell the user how many instances of that word/phrase occur on the page. Otherwise the user is clueless as to how long it will take to go through all the results and reach the last one.
