Free Omni

The Omni Group
have made four of their previously paid for apps free.
OmniDiskSweeper
OmniObjectMeter
OmniDazzle
OmniWeb.
I’ve used DiskSweeper before for rooting out why my hard disk had no space left.
Had OmniWeb been set free before Safari 4 launched I’m sure I would be using it now. It’s always seemed ahead of most browsers, but the price put me off when you could use Safari or Firefox for nada.
I’ll download it of course, but I’m not sure my head can cope with two new browsers in one day.

Safari 4

I’ve only had a quick play around but so far I like the tabs at the top giving a little more screen space and top sites, but it may take some getting used to. I think they need an easier way of adding sites to it unless I’m missing something?
I’m unsure how useful Cover Flow is going to be in Safari, but maybe it has finally found a use? I can’t say I use Cover Flow in anything else, it’s always been something you wow at then never use.
Windows users should be please that it’s now more a native app.
MacWorld US has a good review and Ars.
You can download Safari 4 here.
