CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
The freeware Web browser sports an unusual feature, and a few odd phrases that may not be as helpful as intended. ShareOn's multitabbed interface closely resembles the current interfaces of Firefox and Internet Explorer. Users familiar with those common browsers will have no trouble operating ShareOn. The app installs quickly and easily, but many of the tool tips, menu items, and instructions are obviously translated by someone inexpert in English.
ShareOn's browser uses the Internet Explorer engine. Web sites optimized for that browser will display cleanly with this one. The app also lists the IE favorites, uses tabs, and has select sidebar functions. A pair of plug-ins greatly enhances this browser. The first is a comprehensive RSS feed reader. It includes functions to autoupdate feeds, store posts, import OPML files, color index items, and open items in ShareOn or another browser. All functions are easily set by any user familiar with RSS feeds.
The program's most unusual feature, ComBoo, makes it a snap for users to trim a section of a Web page for display on the desktop. The section autoupdates at a user-selected interval to allow users to keep watch on some piece of a Web page. ShareOn's many functions come with a high memory price, but it's worth trying for the novelty of the ComBoo feature alone.
