Safari 4 Hidden Preferences

Posted by Michael on Feb 25, 2009 in Rumors, Site News, Software, Web

The beta version of Safari version 4 is all the rage on the web right now, and for good reason. It is light, fast, and works well. But it also include a bunch of user interface changes that you may not like. Now, thanks to the guys over at Swedish Campground, you can set some of those interface deviations back the way you want them.

Using the tweaks detailed in this Swedish Campground article, you can move the tabs off the top of the browser, get rid of the Cover Flow view in bookmarks, and a get rid of the Google suggest menu, and a number of other changes. All of the adjustments will require a bit of typing, or copy and pasting, at the command line, but if those new design elements bother you then they are well worth it.

New Safari Version

Posted by Michael on Mar 18, 2008 in Software, Web

Apple has updated their Safari web browser. They claim that Safari is the “fastest web browser on any platform, Safari loads pages up to 3 times faster than Firefox 2 and up to 5.5 times faster than Opera 9.” Additionally, they say “it executes JavaScript up to 4.5 times faster than Firefox 2 and up to 5 times faster than Opera 9. What does all that mean for you? Less time loading pages and more time enjoying them.”

This update, Version 3.1 is available now from Apple’s site. The upgrade is available for both Windows and OS X Leopard and Tiger. No change though in Safari for the iPhone.
