Epiphany is an open source browser intended mainly for Linux, but also with versions for BSD and Mac OS X Epiphany is a descendant of Galeon, another web browser which is quite old now (last updated in 2006), and has been created by the same person who started Galeon - Marco Pesenti Gritti.

The general layout and user interface of Epiphany is different, but overall this browser is similar to Firefox, with the same customisation options through extensiorrs and plug-ins. Instead of themes, Epiphany allows users to customise their user interface. Bookmarks are arranged according to topics rather than folders - you can assign multiple topics to any bookmark, rather than saving it in a particular folder. S, with Epiphany, gone are the days where you forget which folder which bookmark was saved in. Privacy and security features are also present and easily configurable.

When we started Epiphany, we felt that it has a strong resemblance to Firefox as well as Internet Explorer, but at the same time the fonts used are smooth and give a soft and comfortable overall appeal.

Epiphany is definitely something GNOME users should give a try if they haven't already, as this browser can give Firefox a good run for its money.
