    A Sneak Peak at Rockmelt Browser

    Hey guys!

    I knew a long ago about this browser but never been curious to install it. Today I thought to try it out.
    Here's a screenshot:



    I didn't know till I noticed that it is based on Chromium. Not my favorite browser but I know many of you guys like it.
    The main purpose of this project as you may know is to provide more accessibility to social network. So a facebook freak might love it . At the end of the installation it asks you to login to Facebook to allow the Rockmelt application to run on it. On the left there are the online friends and on the right there are the extensions alongside some other apps. Facebook feeds are displayed with a pop up window above the status bar. You can on a friends photo and start chatting. To update your status of share links you can click on your own photo which is on the upper left corner. There's also an option to log out under the main menu. The rest is just like Chrome.



    As far as I know is still under beta stage so let's wait and see...

    Thanks for your review Albo :-) I have tried Rockmelt Browser a few weeks ago and to be honest I didn't like it at all.

    Thanks for the info Albo! Just what I need is a web broswer that makes FB more accessable! I spend more time there already then I should.
