 LAUNCH ONCE,
BROWSE TWICE
Rubi-e, LLC, a tiny Evanston,
Illinois-based tech startup, has an idea that's twice as nice as
your current browser. Called MultiBrowser, this easy-to-use tool
maximizes your Internet experience, the Connected Crustacean was
told today. MultiBrowser sports split-screen technology that divides
your screen into two separate, adjustable windows that function
independently of each other, giving you the features of two browsers
in one.
Option buttons on the top of the screen let you toggle between
top, bottom, or dual-browser views; drop-down menus (print,
favorites, etc.) function for both browsers; and the adjustable
mid-bar (separator) gives you the flexibility to decide how the
screen is divided. The choice is yours--after all, it's your
browser.
As Crusty discovered in his tests, MultiBrowser includes access
to Rubi-e's News and Search site, which features streaming headline
news and Go2Net's MetaCrawler search engine. Working offline, you
can use MultiBrowser's unique features to easily view the contents
(Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint; HTML and images) of multiple
folders--simultaneously--on the same screen. This lets you quickly
synthesize information from numerous Web sites and programs, the
makers claim.
You can try MultiBrowser free 10 minutes at a time (it bombs out
after that), or buy it outright from the Web site for $19.95. In any
case, check it out at

You may discover that your old browser will never seem the same
after you do.
