Apple telah meluncurkan browser andalan mereka dengan versi terbarunya yaitu Safari 4. Jika pertama kali melihat screenshotnya mungkin anda akan mengira ini adalah iTunes kepunyaan Apple. Ya memang, dengan tampilan baru dan juga tentunya fitur-fitur baru yang cool membuat Safari 4 ini berbeda jauh dengan versi sebelumnya.

Dalam tes menggunakan Sunspider JavaScript benchmarks, Safari berhasil mengalahkan Firefox 3.0.6 dalam kecepatan mengakses java script. Kecepatan Safari 4 adalah 800ms, sedangkan Firefox 3.0.6 adalah 2280ms. Akan tetapi Safari masih kalah daripada Chrome (617ms). Akan tetapi dalam penggunananya tidak ada perbedaan mencolok antara Chrome dengan Safari 4 Beta. Percepatan kinerja ini dicapai berkat dengan penggunaan engine JavaScript SquirrelFish yang masih dikembangkan oleh tim WebKit.

Berikut beragam fitur baru yang ada pada Safari 4

Top Sites
Thanks to Top Sites, you can enjoy a stunning, at-a-glance preview of your favorite websites without lifting a finger. Safari 4 Beta tracks the sites you browse and ranks your favorites, presenting up to 24 thumbnails on a single page. You can even customize the display by pinning a favorite site to a specific location in the grid. That locks it into position, so you know just where to find it every time you open Top Sites.

Wonder which sites have changed since your last visit? Sites with a star in the upper-right corner have new content. A single click opens the page and updates its thumbnail. Whenever you want to return to your ever-evolving Top Sites page, just click the new Top Sites button in the bookmarks bar.

Cover Flow
New to Safari, Cover Flow offers a highly visual way of reviewing your site history and bookmarked sites, presenting full-page previews of the websites that look exactly as they did when you last visited them.

One look is all you need to recognize the site you want to visit. Simply flip through website previews in Cover Flow the same way you flip through album art in iTunes. Directional arrows let you browse forward and back. Or you can quickly flip through multiple sites using the slider. And when you find the site you want, simply click to open it.

Full History Search
With Full History Search and Cover Flow, what you see is where you went. Safari introduces a dramatic new way to revisit sites, letting you flip through full-page previews of the sites you visited in the past. You may not have total recall, but Safari does, automatically storing all the text and a thumbnail of every page in your history. That makes it easy for Safari to get results even if you remember little about the site you’re searching for.

Just type a word or phrase in the History Search field in Top Sites, and Safari quickly presents you with a list of possibilities. In fact, you can search for anything that was on a page you visited, even photo captions. To jog your memory, Safari presents the sites it finds in Cover Flow, giving you the opportunity to spot the right site on sight.

Windows Native Look and Feel
If you’re using Safari on a PC with Windows Vista or Windows XP, you’ll feel right at home. That’s because Safari features a native look — just like other Windows applications — including a native title bar, borders, and toolbars. To provide a consistent Windows experience, Safari now uses Windows standard fonts, but you can choose to use Apple’s crisp anti-aliased fonts if you prefer. Of course, Safari in Windows delivers the same lightning-fast performance provided by the Mac version.
