Apple mimicing Chrome...


Apple has released the all new Safari 4 Beta for Windows and Mac. I just downloaded it and the striking feature from this is the 'Top Sites' thing. This feature has been grinded and muddled in both Chrome and Opera. But still Apple is banking on this feature for their new release Safari 4 Beta.

The look and feel was just like the Chrome with the menu items on the right top of the browser and the page loading was more or less like Opera. But this definitely is not one of them when it comes to the bookmarking stuff. There is the usual personal or bookmarks bar, the rendering engine, etc...

One more eye-catching feature is that of the 'Cover Flow' where you can flip through your site history or bookmarks. But this feature isn't that great, since you don't go to bookmarks to see what that bookmark is or what we are doing with that. The tabs are also taken to the top, which I feel is an unnecessary thing.
