3D seems to be the buzzword for every technological development today. Many software applications are also taking advantage of this 3D trend, the latest being the release of a 3D browser called YouCube for Windows 7 desktop. At times, it becomes tedious and annoying to switch between different browsers as one browser may have your favorite add-ons whereas you might be using the other browser to watch a video. Since not all browsers have the same functionality, the functionality of a 3D browser becomes all the more important and relevant. Let us know more about them.
YouCube
This 3D browser has been developed by Chris Cavanagh based on the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) by using XAML technology. YouCube is only available for Windows 7 desktop and cannot be used for any smartphone. So, if you like to watch a video in one browser and read news in the other browser, you can just flip the 3D Cube of the browser and click on the one that you want to view. When you click on the cube side a browser, it will maximize to a full screen mode.
SurfCube
SurfCube has been specifically made for Windows Phone 7 platform, which means that you can multitask with different browsers by just interacting with cube that is made up of different browsers on each side. Since Windows Phone 7 has a touch interface, it is easier for users to work with multiple browsers in a small screen.
