Removing chrome, plus more Safari tricks
Merlin Mann | Sep 11 2004
Just mentioned in a comment here, but worth repeating since a couple people had asked about the “skin” on Safari shown in my screen shots. It’s actually not a skin but a “chrome-less” version of Safari, courtesy of a great little app called Safari Enhancer. It lets you—among many things—remove the aluminum/chrome look from Safari. It also lets you hack up things like link style and colors, deactivate the cache, and import bookmarks from a bunch of different browsers. Most importantly perhaps, it can enable a debugging menu under which a wealth of fantastic features await you. (How about “Open this page in Firefox” and “Change my user agent to ‘IE 5’”? Great stuff.) As long as we’re off on a Safari day, I’ll also mention the other Safari tools I swear by.
One that’s pretty popular with the kids that I don’t currently use is Saft, a plug-in that does Sogudi-like location bar searches, full-screen browsing, kiosk mode, and more. Lot of folks swear by it. Any I missed or don’t know about that you love? 6 Comments

I use AcidSearch, which is similar to Sogudi. You select which search you want from the search bar menu. You can edit the searches, and it comes with the most obvious ones installed - ie, all the Googles, imdb, dictionary.com, etc. » POSTED IN:
