Safari 4 Beta

Grab it here.

This is probably the best browser I've had the pleasure of using for a long while. Firefox 3 is horrible under OS X, and Chrome isn't available yet, so although they've got a chance to change my mind somewhere down the line, this is my obsession for the time being.


LIST OF COOL NEW SHIT:

- The UI's been overhauled - tabs are now in the title bar, similar to Chrome's layout under Windows.
- Coverflow-enabled history browsing
- An oh-so-shiny "top sites" page no doubt inspired by those found in Opera and Chrome.
- Search term suggestions in the Google search box.
- It's fast.
- A load of other new shit I've failed to mention.

From what I hear the UI's nicer under XP/Vista, too, although I've yet to try it in Windows myself. The only qualm I have with it is that they still haven't added tab-closing with centre click, but once the plugin I was using for that gets updated for this version of Safari, all will be fine.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah I am. I don't know what's causing it for me. Speaking of lag, I've noticed a lot of animated GIF images also run at a fraction of their speed on Safari; case in point: Pangalin's current avatar. Maybe the slower speed is the way they're supposed to run, who knows?

Safari's always been this way Although, I've been running 3, 4 and Firefox side-by-side, and though gif speed still isn't quite right, it's now just slightly slower than in Firefox (albeit still noticeably slow).

There's nowhere I can't reach.
