Safari 4 – better, faster, prettier.
Wednesday, February 25th, 2009Apple has released new version of popular Safari browser. It looks great, works fast. I was pretty impressed with how fast istockphoto.com worked for me. It feels almost like either my computer got an upgrade or my internet connection got faster.
You can tell the difference specially on massive pages that use a lot of widgets, animations and transitions. I definitely recommend the browser. I was excited about the web inspector, but it still not where I’d like it to be. Firebug for Firefox still beats it for web developers.
It is great to see that browsers get more and more powerful and we just started seeing what web can do as a platform. It’s not just about pages it’s about web applications. And with advanced browsers there are less and less limits of what can be done in the browser window.
