Beamrise

Visiting the preferred websites and getting in touch with online friends is a common daily activity for a lot of people worldwide. Given the large number of users undergoing this task, many developers try to attract as many of them as possible through their Internet browsing solutions and other similar apps.
One such software is Beamrise, which is basically a web browser, but it packs several features that are meant to set it apart from other similar utilities.

Browse the web from a simple and practical GUI

As soon as the installation procedure is complete, the program will start up and you will get to meet its friendly interface. Since it is based on Chromium, Beamrise borrows a lot in terms of look as well and for this reason many users will find it rather familiar.
Besides the top sites that are displayed on startup, the browser features a news sidebar where you can add any RSS feed you are interested in. The bookmarks are also at hand and easily manageable from their dedicated area.

Social service integration and visual bookmarking

One of the most appreciated features of Beamrise is the ability to facilitate exchanging messages with friends from Facebok, Google Chat or Skype via its dedicated sidebar. Note that some issues may appear occasionally, when trying to connect to the supported services, while other functions like the videochat may also be temporarily unavailable.
The way in which users can save their preferred webpages is pretty interesting as it implies not only the personalization of the bookmark title or the creation of several albums where the favorites can be stored, but also a small screenshot of that page. The thumbnail assigned to each bookmark will help set them apart so you can save time when trying to access a specific saved website.

Enticing yet rough-hewn feature set for social browsing

Beamrise promises a lot but it still has a lot to do before meeting the high expectations most users will have after glancing at the advertised features. The navigation is smooth, as one would expect from a sibling of Chrome, but the overall feel is that of a product that still needs some work.
