Maxthon 3.0 Alpha 2 browser invites go out today

The Maxthon development team announced this morning that advanced testers with a user level greater than 10 will now find a link in their Maxthon Passport that allows invite links to be sent to friends.

Maxthon is a customizable Web browser which offers skinning, tabbed browsing, mouse gestures, privacy controls and ad blocking, as well as third party toolbar support. But the key feature of Maxthon 3.0 is its use of dual rendering engines: both Trident and Webkit. While it strives to retain Internet Explorer-style compatibility with "compatible mode," (Trident) it offers the option to kick into "turbo mode" (Webkit) with reduced compatibility but higher speed.

The 3.0 alpha version is still a very early build and by no means adequate for daily use, hence the nature of the test. Maxthon users with a level under 10 are encouraged to post their requests in the Maxthon forum.
