RockMelt is a free social media web browser developed by Tim Howes and Eric Vishria. The project is backed by Netscape founder Marc Andreessen. RockMelt integrates a technique for surfing the web that focuses on Google Search and social media, in particular Facebook and Twitter.

The browser was launched in private beta on November 8, 2010 and now it is in the public version beta. Until March 2011, users were required to connect their Facebook account to the website in order to download it. RockMelt supports Windows and Mac OS X platforms.

RockMelt is based on Google's open-source project Chromium, now on version 18. This is a cross-platform family of browsers that use the open-source web layout engine WebKit—jointly built by Apple, Google, and the open-source community and Google's own V8 JavaScript engine, also open-source.

Rockmelt was created by Rockmelt, Inc., located in Mountain View, California.

Rockmelt has an optional Facebook sidebar for efficient communication with contacts. The sidebar also updates Facebook statuses and allows you to view your Facebook notifications. Rockmelt also integrates Twitter. Searching Google in the search bar pops-up a small drop down window with search results.
