Safari 5 Impressions

[reubs]

I've noticed a couple of little things (and I don't know if they've been mentioned) that I really like. I really like that I can just type the name of a bookmark and it will come up. I hardly ever have to navigate to my bookmark bar now b/c of it. Also, I noticed that on https sites there is a padlock icon in the top righthand corner. That may have been there in Safari 4, but I never noticed it. The URL bar/bookmark thing, though, is brand new, right?

For the guys having stability problems:

- clean cache/history
- avoid plugins (SIMBL, GLIMS, etc)
- avoid extensions (Adblock crashes OFTEN)
- use Flashless or Click2Flash (for Flash crap)

For blocking ads, use GlimmerBlocker (it is a proxy, so it doesn't affect Safari stability).
For extensions, install one, use the browser for a while to make sure it works without crashing before you install another.

The most important post on this thread so far!

It's amazing how many people d/l all kinds of Safari enhancers, and then one day when there is a Safari update, and it becomes non-functional, they wonder "What's going on?? Safari sucks!"
