These are the ones I have so far.

Try 'Flock' it integrates wonderfully with lots of different social networks but has a lot of the support that Firefox has as it's heavily influenced by Firefox.

Also, lynx. I love lynx.

For whatever reason 'Flock' won't load for me. I installed it, but I can't run it. Clicking the icon does nothing.

What about Seamonkey? Since you've got so many Gecko-based browers already, why not add one more.

Peace...

lynx is cool but old. links and links2 are newer, text-mode browsers that offer more functionality than lynx.

I installed Links last night in fact, but the version I have is ELinks since that's what they have for Debian packages.

I know it's dated but it's an obsession. What can I say? I'm fallible.
