Link: A Japanese browser that uses WebKit. Safari taking up too much of the screen? This runs fullscreen with a transparent control panel and as an auto updating webpage desktop. Has many features that Safari doesn't.

Pretty cool. I would use it if it were able to use my secondary monitor, but as far as I can tell it can't. I will keep an eye out and wait for that feature.

Agreed. Pretty cool idea.

Oh yea, and it should be more friendly to my dock and have a controller set up so i don't have to movie it when i want to view a web page

Very Good

I have the controller set to almost transparent. That way it doesn't block the page, and I can use it without having to move anything around. It takes only a minute or two to really appreciate it. Much faster than Safari (which is already faster than most), and simple. If you don't need bookmarks, it's wonderful.

Too bad you have to enter "http://" into the controller everytime.

I think I'll use it instead of safari though.

edit: I just noticed a bookmarks icon in the menu bar that links to not just boookmarks, but history, other windows, preferences, and "empty caches" as well!

I like some of the concepts here. I think i favor a browser that "goes away" easier. The transparency is a nice touch. But i have so much crap on my desktop that its hard to cope with this, especially if your obsessive compulsive. I always install some GUI alteration app (which i sorta see this as) and then it just drives me nuts 'cause i know it isn't what Apple intended and end up switching back. In the future i would like to see them take a page from Ambrosia and put the website location bar and controls in the menubar or else create another bar right below the menu bar, very thin, but legible. I don't care for the idea of making the browser the center of the computer though like windows.
