RockMelt: NOT your mothers browser

As an AGGRESSIVE and FREQUENT Social Media user this is like a browser to the 100th power. AMAZING and I am loving it. I have 5 INVITES left so if you want to try it let me know.

RockMelt Beta

good

RockMelt Beta

Pros

Social network integration. Search result pages preloaded. Google Chrome foundation makes it fast and safe.

Cons

You have to log in with your Facebook account and give it access to all your Facebook data. Some beta-style crashes. Interface somewhat distracting.

Bottom Line

Based on Google's Chrome code, RockMelt makes Facebook an integral part of the browser, and preloads search pages to get you to your results faster. It's well-executed, but the interface is more distracting than that of a standard browser. It crashed a couple times in my testing, but no more than you'd expect for a beta.

Will RockMelt Rock Your World?
