It's not a NEW browser, it's a set of extensions for Chrome. For those who don't mess with social networking crap, it may as well not exist.

So I was confused when I began this article, because I thought that Firefox was an open framework of Netscape.
It turns out Netscape started the Mozilla foundation, and opensourced Netscape. Netscape died, and, all the while, some of the Netscape programmers developed Firefox from scratch.

I feel wary of RockMelt. I don't know why though.

They should just change it to Rock. The name RockMelt seems like they spend 15 minutes deciding with a bunch of teens.

Well Google Chrome is a fantastic browser, so it is possible.
