Add previews, language selector to Google on Safari

Posted by Yoshimasa Niwa on 02/22, 2008

There are cool tool which allows us to change the website to what you want to do, named: GreaseMonkey. Unfortunately, this tool could not work on Safari itself. But the genius guy developed the same tool for Safari named GreaseKit. This tool is commonly compatible with GreaseMonkey and some user scripts can work on it without any change. But some user scripts I found on userscripts.org do not work well on Safari with GreaseKit. Then, I scratched user scripts which work like these scripts with GreaseKit.
