RockMelt
How
can you bet against Netscape founder Marc Andreessen's return to the
field that made him famous? It's easy when his future offering,
RockMelt, is set to enter a browser business populated by Microsoft,
Google and Apple, not to mention the popular Firefox. While little is
known about RockMelt's strategy, other than the fact that Facebook
figures prominently, it's going to have to have more than a few bells
and whistles (and social networking features) to live up to the hype
that's already building around it. Otherwise co-founders Eric Vishria
and Tim Howes will be sitting on a dud, and we'll have to hear over and
over again about how RockMelt "melted" in the heat of battle.
