Jailbreak Only: SwipeSafari - Adds Multi-Touch Gestures And More To Safari For iOS

A new jailbreak tweak called SwipeSafari promises to add a bunch of great features to Safari for iOS, according to iDownloadBlog.
Once downloaded and installed, users can take advantage of a number of multi-touch gestures in the small-screen Safari. Additionally, it's also possible to pull the app's screen in one direction to perform an action. Such gestures can be configured in the Settings app: SwipeSafari adds a new pane, via which the tweak can be adjusted.
It's a handy app, but as iDownloadBlog notes, SwipeSafari is rather similar to FullScreen for Safari - another jailbreak tweak that adds gestures to the Safari app. In terms of price, the two are also near identical: you can grab SwipeSafari in the Cydia Store for $1.50 (half-price for a limited time only), while FullScreen for Safari is available for $1.49 - also for a limited time.
Which is better? Jeff from iDownloadBlog praises Swipe Safari's clean interface, but notes that currently, the tweak isn't all that stable. Take a look at the video walkthrough below, and let us know which tweak you decide to download in the comments!
