Always love to see some innovation in the Browser space! You say no third party cookies. At all? That means no more facebook like, no more twitter share? Can we white-list third-party cookies that we accept?

@tejus thanks! @mknits thanks & nice tagline!! @spolu you can whitelist sites to allow third-party cookies via the "umbrella button" at the top right for particular sites. FB like & twitter shares should still work -- you may be asked to log into the respective sites.

Finally! Nice to see browsers working towards maintaining privacy, rather than doing what's in the best interest of advertisers. I was shocked to see AdBlock Plus is planning on charging big advertisers a fee to not block some of their ads.
Could you try to implement those features now also?
Please provide users a link to full-size download. Otherwise it would be a big turn-off.
Your tagline should be - The Most Privacy-Conscious Browser On the Earth.
