There are two types of people on the internet: people who like Safari, and people who don’t. I personally like Safari because it’s extremely fast, and very simple. Sometimes, though, it would be nice to have some extra features. That’s where Glims comes in. Glims is a Safari addon that adds a ton of functionality and features to the otherwise minimal web browser. Here are some key features that the developer listed on his site:
• Adds thumbnails to Google.com search results
• Adds thumbnails to Yahoo.com search results
• Adds search engines to the default Google search tab
• Adds full-screen browsing capability
• Adds Favicons to tab labels
• Undo “Close Tab” (cmd-z)
• Re-opens last session when Safari starts
• Auto-Closes download window
• Type-ahead support (auto cmd-f)
• Sets the focus on the search field when opening a new window
• Adds Amazon’s information banner on Google.com search results
• Adds Amazon’s information banner on Yahoo.com search results
• Adds a “Max Window Size” menu item to resize the Safari window
• Forms autocomplete always on
• Dated download folders
• Localized to Japanese, French, Greek, and German
Overall, this app is definitely a must-have for anyone who uses Safari.
Rating: 5/5. Works perfectly, and the features are awesome.
