How RockMelt Will Battle Chrome In 2012: Identity, Apps, Communication

Rockmelt

I don't know, seems it's very integrated with social media. I know that's the future, but I'm not the early adopting kind of person. If anyone has used it, let me know how you like it, thanks.

I never heard of Rockmelt. I recall the Flock Browser being touted as the social media browser.

I have a copy. It works fine. The social media stuff is redundant to other (better) apps, though the Facebook integration is done well.

That said, it still feels bloated.

Chrome is my default.

The google chrome team is over 900 people and they have some really cool stuff coming out. It will be everyone's default browser pretty soon. Since I recently decided to actually use facebook I will give it a shot. BTW bobby, I know you are doing web dev... do you use chrome's dev features (ctrl-shift-j)? It is handy to findout why stuff doesnt look or work right.

Chrome is the best in my opinion. I did discover the javascript console, ctl-shft-j, by accident, haha, I was proud of myself for being fumble fingered!
