Split-pane web browser has Twitter built in. View your Twitter timeline and mentions while checking out websites. You can open links from the timeline in new tabs or browse multiple pages in split views.
Firefox
When it comes to web browsers, it may seem that the obvious choice is Safari — a great program that comes installed with your Mac. There are, in fact, many free alternatives to choose from. The most popular is Firefox, but there are those who swear by Camino or the contender from Google — Chrome. And now, Opera and OmniWeb are free. Each has its pros and cons, so it can’t hurt to at least try them out.

Glims for Safari
Add-on creates scads of new features for Safari. Among them: thumbnails for search results, full-screen browsing, keyword search in the address bar and Undo for closed tabs. Plus much more.
LastPass
If you’re looking for a way to save all the logins and passwords you use at various websites, you can’t do much better than 1Password. However, the free version of LastPass — acting as a browser extension — covers many of the basic functions. It comes highly recommended by PCMag, and is worth a look if you need something free.

Firefox has moved on and abandoned support for Macs with PowerPC processors or running Tiger. But that doesn’t mean you have to get left behind. TenFourFox tweaks Firefox 4 so you can surf with almost exactly the same code on your PowerPC Mac.
