Apple’s Safari has now released Safari 4. What’s really interesting is how different the features have become, what I’ve noticed is that the feel and look have changed into more of a old safari mixed with itunes and ipod features and it looks stunning. New Features include:

**Top sites: shows all the frequented websites by the user with an elegant looking page.

**Full History search / Cover Flow: Similar to the IPod’s Albums where you could browse (flip) the pictures of webpages that you’ve visited. the interface is easy to use (familiarity to IPod), where scrolling sideways shows you the pages like albums.

** Tabs are switched on the top of the browser (slide tabs to move around)

** Auto Complete on web address field (from history, top sites and bookmarks)

** Built-in Web Developer tools (Great feature finally added to the browser)

** Faster Web Browsing by using Apple’s WebKit. They claim to be the “fastest web browser on any platform.”

** And other features that were in the older safari. (Private Browsing, Autofill, etc.)
