Dillo is a web browser that was first created
in 1999 by Jorge Arellano Cid in an attempt to increase the access to
the internet, the idea being that no one should spend additional
money to buy a new computer or pay for new internet services to
access the World Wide Web.
It passed
through series of developments up until 2006, when its development
stopped due to the lack of funds, but the project was eventually
restarted with new donations.
Dillo was design
to be a very compact, fast and efficient browser that could quickly
access any information on the web.
Having a file
size of 1.3 MB, the browser seems to serve its purpose. Dillo is
capable of keeping bookmarks, allows tabbed browsing and supports
various image formats like JPEG, PNG and GIF.
The support of
JavaScript, Java, Flash or complex text layout is not included which
explains the quickness of the browser in loading different websites.
If you want a
light browser that will allow you a quick access to the internet
without any of its newer features and the associated slowdown in PC
performance, then this browser would be appropriate for you.
Its compact weight and ease of use will allow it to revitalize any old PC machine that is incapable of supporting new versions of more modern web browsers.
