vim.safariextension
Vim keybindings for Safari.
If you’re using this and my Hinter Safari extension, you’ll need to tinker with line 163 of vim-keybindings.js to stop the page from scrolling when you hit Ctrl + f to activate link hinting. (I’m probably the only person on the planet who needs to know that, but still…)
PostRank
An extension for Safari and Chrome that ranks and filters items in your Google Reader inbox according to their popularity on various social networks.
It works brilliantly on high traffic feeds with a dodgy signal to noise ration, like Pinboard/del.ico.us tags or sub-Reddits—the kind of stuff you want to skim through, river of news style rather than actively read, item by item.
Incognito
Incognito is a Safari extension that prevents Google and Facebook from following you on the web.
Naked Twitter, a Safari extension that makes Twitter a quieter place to be.
BetterSource
BetterSource shows the document source in a new tab, with line numbers, and colour syntax highlighting.

Hinter
I made1 a little Safari extension to enable link hinting, which lets you browse the web without need of a trackpad or mouse.
Installation
- Enable extensions in Safari.
- Download Hinter.
- Unzip.
- Double click on
Hinter.safariextz.
Usage
- Ctrl + f to follow links.
- Ctrl + F to follow links in a new tab/window.
- Type the number beside the link you wish to follow.
- Ctrl + c or esc to cancel hinting.
Vim Like On Safari is a Safari extension that, as the name sort-of-suggests, adds a selection of Vim-style keybindings to the browser.
Even if you’re not a Vim person, it’s worth checking out for the ‘hinting’ feature, shown above: hit f and all visible links are assigned a letter; type that letter to follow the link. Instant emancipation from the tyranny of the mouse!
