Pimp my Safari

With most advanced Internet users trialling Firefox, Safari doesn’t seem so sexy (well not to an old IE user). To try and regain some lost ground there is a site that allows you to Pimp my Safari.

It recommends three must haves:
Saft
Pith Helmet
SafariStand

Saft has features like draggable tabs, full-screen browsing, searchable bookmarks and history, URL shortcuts, kiosk mode and more. Pith Helmet is basically an ad blocker: flash, pop-ups and Shockwave.

The site is a very clean design and provides the links to all of the options where you can pimp your Safari browser. Attached to the site is a blog detailing any changes to the options, links to the plugins and bookmarklets.
