Safari 4 Beta - Something Something.

I think netbooks, Apple and Nintendo have hit the head on what people tend to want today. People are too casual to care much about the specs, so long as it gets the job done by being cute, pretty and gimmicky.

Take Apple for instance. They take something good from something and then put it into their something. (???)

Their new beta version of Safari 4 is really pretty and very fast. It takes the pretty features of Google Chrome such as the title bar tabs. They then takes features from their iTunes, which took features from someone else, such as coverflow and made it look really pretty.

Where as Firefox 3.1 beta 3 has great techy features, such as the new TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, Web worker thread support, Native JSON support and improved Gecko layout engine.....

It still reigns supreme. It's Add-ons are forever the reason. There is going be one add-on that is indispensable to someone. That's if they know that they exist.

Safari 4 Beta - A Pretty Browser for Girls.


Lots of eye candy and lots of fun.

Top Sites

At a glance, gorgeous preview of your favorite sites、all ranked by safari which tracks your usage.

Great feature that was useful for about 5 minutes.

But it was a really good 5 minutes.

Cover Flow

Always liked cover flow.

Genuinely useless but looks so gorgeous.

Imagine using this with the touch screen ASUS Eee Top 1602.

Full History Search in Cover Flow.

Oh wow. Something useful. It can be a minefield looking back at your history, just to remember that page you suddenly find useful.

Tabs on Top.

Genius. Utter Genius.

Nitro Engine.

Snore.

There's also over 150 features of safari.

But things like ARIA Support,Enhanced Keyboard navigation, CSS, Acid Test are just too interesting for me.

Now if they could sort out all those websites where Safari is not supported.
