A new browser released recently and I'm seeing it get some good reviews around the web. Anyone tried this one out? From the site: quote:A browser with your interests at heart. https://www.brave.com/ <-- pretty nice URL for them to nab. Kudos Wikipedia entry: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brave_(web_browser)  sourced from bitcoinist.com

quote:In an effort to compensate for the effects of its advertisements blocking and substitution, Brave is beta testing an innovative system to reward publishers, called Brave Payments. This system allows users to optionally set a budget that they are willing to donate to the websites they visit. Brave will then calculate the percentage assigned to each website through an algorithm and the publisher receives a transfer Hm. quote:in bitcoins if it opts into the system. oh dear

Brave is cool and good if you're okay with Brandon Eich. Its a fork of chrome, but with native noscript, adblock and some other neato tools that you can customize per site. Mobile version is p cool. You can also tip the websites that you block all the ads on
