Alternative Browsers

The big 5 browsers are the most common, but what are the alternatives? Stay tuned.

1. Maxthon Cloud Browser


The Maxthon Cloud Browser available for Windows is a browser that can save data in the cloud. It's fast, it's great, and it's also very good at doing the benchmarks. Maxthon is big in China, where it was developed.


2. Camino

Camino off of Firefox is arguably more Mac than Safari (see Shiira). Clearly, Camino's layout is off by a bit for me, but it is still a great browser. Camino is just more Mac than Safari.


3. Mozilla SeaMonkey

SeaMonkey is a branch off of Mozilla. SeaMonkey is sometimes laggy, slow, and sluggish in moving along, but if you're looking for simple browsing without bits and pieces scattered everywhere, SeaMonkey would be a choice for you.


4. K-Meleon

K-Meleon was a browser developed before Mozilla and was built for you to have control over the browser. K-Meleon is a great browser, it's fast, and settings are quickly accessible.


5. Shiira

Shiira is even more Mac than Camino. Shiira is slow on Windows, but on Mac, it is Mac-ish and doesn't give that Windows feel to it. SamueltehG33K (or something like that) says Shiira is the second-worst browser, worse than Internet Explorer 4 but better than AOL Explorer.


6. Avant

Avant is a browser that you can easily manage. You can switch between three engines (Gecko, Trident, and WebKit), and it is considerably good for you.


THOSE ARE 6 ALTERNATIVE B R O W S E R S!
