Edd Dumphill takes a look at a new Web browser for the Linux GNOME set called Epiphany:

Even after a few days of use, I'm a confirmed addict. The incremental search approach to bookmark/history navigation has me entirely hooked. The typed word, the command line, is still one of the best ever interfaces to computers.

It's great to another application breaking out of the boring and inefficient tree-shaped mindset, let's hope more follow suit. (It occurred to me that I'd benefit greatly from a similar approach to email access, as I have over 650 separate mail folders...)

The browser uses Mozilla's Gecko rendering engine.
