Have you heard of Swiftweasel, Flock, Shiira, xB and Sleipnir? Apparently, there are over 100 existing (although not widely used) web browsers. Most of them make use of the rendering engines Trident (IE), Gecko (Firefox), WebCore (Safari) and Presto (Opera 7 and above). However, some of them offer large fields for experiments and exploration, e.g. 3D Engines, but also really useful browsers with advanced functionalities such as desktop-tools integration. Besides Firefox, Opera and Internet Explorer there is a number of promising alternatives which can improve your flexibility, increase your productivity and enrich your browsing experience.

How does Google PageRank work, which factors do have an impact on it and which don't? And what do we really know about PageRank? This article puts the facts straight."
