RockMelt

RockMelt RockMelt is a free social media web browser developed by Tim Howes and Eric Vishria. The project is backed by Netscape founder Marc Andreessen.

RockMelt is re-inventing the browser for how people use the web today by making it easy to stay in touch with friends, search online, and get updates from your favorite sites RockMelt integrates a technique for surfing the web that focuses on Google Search and Social Media, in particular Facebook and Twitter. The browser was launched in private beta on November 8, 2010 and now it is in the public

version beta. Until March 2011, users were required to connect their Facebook account to the website in order to download it. RockMelt supports Windows and Mac OS X platforms. RockMelt is based on Google's open-source project Chromium, now on version 16. This is a cross-platform family of browsers (available for Windows, Mac, and Linux) that use the open-source web layout engine WebKit—jointly built by Apple, Google, and the open-source community—but have the JavaScript engine replaced by Google's own V8, also open-source.
