Social media shouldn’t be a heavy burden, like some kind of obligatory Shake-Weight of connectedness. If anything, they should feel like your favorite spandex workout unitard: freeing, aerodynamic, and completely essential.
That’s why we’re glad we came across RockMelt. It’s a browser that has our favorite social media sites, news feeds and instant messaging all built in for constant easy access.
RockMelt has taken all the parts of the Internet you use most and built them right into your browser. No more constantly scanning Facebook, Twitter, or Tumblr: Your social media is all on the side of your browser, no matter what site you’re browsing.
It’s streamlining at it’s best. If you’re working on an email or project, you can quickly search for address information from Facebook or for that link your friend Tweeted earlier.
Basically, they’ve taken all the parts of the Internet you use most and built them right into your browser. You can easily convert any RSS feed into a custom tab, so you’ll never miss breaking news while accessing all the other sites you can’t function without.

And to think: People used to mock us for wearing sweatbands while surfing the Internet!
