RockMelt has
released the latest beta version of its social web browser. The
Beta 5 release features a new
Social Omnibox design said to improve the social experience. When you load the browser, you can directly sign into your Facebook account. As opposed to three chat boxes, the new design lets you chat with up to seven of your online
Facebook friends at once. Moreover, you can also view your friends' FB
Timelines directly using this feature. The
New Tab Page layout gives you instant access to your friends' profiles. The
Social Reading ticker located at the top right corner of the browser connects directly to your FB
News Feeds. The browser also features an
App Edge with 12 listed apps, you can add more apps from the
App Center.
RockMelt is based on
Google's Chrome browser, and has been built using the
Chromium open-source project. Since this is a beta release, more apps and bug fixes should be underway.
