More Safari Extensions

Came across this while reading old blogs from Gizmodo. Saft is an app that bundles a good collection of features that are currently missing in Safari. Just to name one I can’t live without — crash protection. Safari has serious issues with performance when opened for an extended period of time, and sometimes it crashes without warning. What crash protection in Saft does is it saves the current tabs and their URLs at the time Safari crashes and gives user the ability to retrieve those URLs upon relaunch.

Another cool feature is the ability to manually shuffle the tabs and rearrange the order; something that’s in existence in Firefox already.

Pimp My Safari has more stuff on improving features that Safari currently lacks.

Also, OpenDarwin keeps a webkit blog (the core technology in Safari) with interesting updates from time to time. This particular entry deals with memory leaks, which Safari is notoriously known for.

      NICE! It remembered my name, email address, and website! Anyway, are you not using Camino yet? EEEEVERYBODY’s doin’ it, Chu. And by EEEEVERYBODY, I mean me.

      Anyway, I’m a BIG fan of Camino, even though it doesn’t automatically input my name and address when I am signing up for a new service. Have you tried it?

      I tried Camino a while ago when it first came out. Haven’t tried it since. I have too many damn browsers on my Mac: Safari, Opera and finally Firefox.
