New Social Browser RockMelt Lets You Search Google, Ad Free!

The newest browser on the block is a social number built on Chromium called RockMelt. RockMelt was set up by Mr Netscape himself: Marc Andreessen and it is just right for all you social networking aficionados.

It lets you access all your social channels from the side of your browser and receive updates when anything changes on any of your most visited pages. Plus, when you want to share something like a video, you just have to drag it across to one of your social channels and Boom! it’s in there.

Here’s the nice video from their launch page with a demonstration:

A possible downside to this set up comes as RockMelt needs to be given an all access pass to your every coming and going, all your passwords, your inside leg measurement and your deepest darkest fantasy involving Jammie Dodgers. They have, of course, stated that they will not sell on any information to advertisers.

Ad Free Google Search Results

One of the most interesting things about RockMelt is that when you search in the Google search box at the top right of the browser, you get Ad free search results. This happens because when you type something in the search box in the RockMelt toolbar you get an instant stream of organic results below it. Cool huh?
