So...who else is using it? I just got my copy and it seems pretty darned quick.
I've been a diehard FF guy since 1.X...but this is pretty impressive.
Gonna have to fool around a bit.

Any first thoughts from anyone?

I've read a lot about it in the recent news. Seems like it's geared for social networking. So I probably will skip Rockmelt, unless I see another benefit. Has the same or similar engine as Chrome?

It is very chrome like...indeed. Fast, RSS feeds on one side, FB on the other.

It is based on Chromium platform the same as Chrome and is very similar~but instead of me trying to describe it, I would suggest this review on Mashable Is RockMelt the Social Web Browser We've Been Waiting For? It does a pretty even-handed job with both pros and cons. I am using along with other browsers and I am impressed with it. This is a beta but has been completely stable for me.
