Netscape Founder Helping to Make New Browser
New browser might be a social networking tool.
The modern day web experience all started with Netscape 15 years ago. Since then, Netscape has fallen due to Microsoft's aggressive hand with Internet Explorer, but in its place have been alternatives such as Firefox.
Netscape's original father, Marc Andreessen is making another stab that changing the web market again with the secret development of another web browser.
Andreessen is backing a start up company called RockMelt. Little is known about the company and its products at this time, but the New York Times reports that a now-removed privacy policy on the RockMelt webpage indicated that there would be some link to Facebook.
This leads some to believe that the RockMelt browser would tie in closely with social networks.

Never know might turn out OK. I used to love Netscape (A very long time ago)
It will be interesting to see if this new browser makes it to market, and if it gets the same hype Firefox did. Chrome didn't do so well for Google.

I hate it when pages do appear different on browsers, being as little as some font size, because that means much more stuff in the background goes unnoticed.
Doesn't this make so much sense? Even email software, phones, applicances could share the same rending engine ensuring what designers build looks perfect everywhere. Think of the time and cost savings around the world to have a single source for rendering web content! From the designers, developers, people building these browsers, the various rending engines out there now, etc....many MILLIONS of dollars easily would be saved each year.
