Shiira CommentarySome potential but too flaky for normal use... - Version: 2.2 (build080118), 3/19/2008 02:27AM PST

Shiira has potential: it looks great and has some really nice features, but there are a couple things that remove it from the list of possible candidates for even a backup browser at this point. First off all, the bookmark management system would not work properly for me. It would not properly import and the bookmarks I tried to rearrange ended up vanishing. This in itself is a huge problem. Coupled with the lack of any built-in or add-on based ad blocking and the lack of 1Password support, Shiira isn't usable for me. I'd like to see where this project goes in the future, though...
