A browser for sharing. This is what Marc Andreessen, Netscape Founder, calls this new Browser.
RockMelt browser - browser for sharing
Accoring to TechCrunch, RockMelt is built first and foremost for sharing. You browse with your friends (the first thing you do is log into Facebook and your favorite friends and their latest status updates are always available along the left rail). And there is a big “Share” button up top, which lets you share any webpage, along with images and a preview, on Facebook. You could call it a Facebook browser, but it really is more than that.
TechCrunch then asked Andreessen if he thinks RockMelt is a harbinger of the end of the webpage. Here’s what he said:
The webpage stays primary for decades to come. It is a universal canvas for any application or service. I think you want to retain that, but you want to enhance it. That is why we keep the page front and center but draw in these things people care about: friends, feeds, updates, search results.
RockMelt invite at TechCrunch’s post was gone in minutes. Have you downloaded RockMelt yet?
