Safari 4 Beta, First Spin

If you havn’t already, download Safari from Apple, its worth a spin. Be warned however, Safari 4 is still a beta and should be treated like one. Lucky for us, Apple was kind enough to include an easy undo by packing an uninstaller into the beta download.

Keep that uninstaller close to your heart – there’s been more than a few reports about the (un)expected beta bugs and crashes. I’ve run across a few myself – Hotmail, Gmail with Google Gears, WordPress, and clearing History.

On the upside, Safari 4 beta is blazing fast and has a few great new features, 150 according to Apple. I’ve found 3 very useful so far – Top Sites, Dev Tools (web inspector, etc), and Search. But don’t just take my word for it, go grab a copy and post Apple some feedback. They’re apparently looking for help in testing and improving one of the best browsers on the market.
