Check out RockMelt – the ‘Social’ Web Browser

If you are not on Facebook or Twitter, you must be living in a cave. This is the age of social media and social networking. To spruce up your social life, here is a social browser too. Meet RockMelt, the social ‘Facebook browser’. From the developer blog -

RockMelt does more than just navigate Web pages. It makes it easy for you to do the things you do every single day on the Web: share and keep up with your friends, stay up-to-date on news and information, and search.

RockMelt is backed by Netscape founder Marc Andreessen and has entered a private beta today. It lives in the cloud and uses Facebook authentication to synchronize a user’s browsing experience across machines. Your settings, bookmarks, etc., are all backed up online.
RockMelt is built on Chromium, the open source project behind Google’s browser. However, as a Chrome user, you will notice three biggest changes to the browser as RockMelt is built around friends, feeds, and search results. The left rail is for friends. The right rail is for sites. And the top rail is for search.
