I quite like it. Check out the "Web apps", to understand what Raven is about.
But please, don't close all websites when I close the window. Closing tabs on closing the window makes sense for Chrome, where each tab represents something ephemeral to begin with. But in Raven, a "tab" might be my Twitter page or my Hacker News feed. I want that to be readily available when I reopen Raven. (For the time being, I might just use CMD-H instead of CMD-W)
Or maybe that is not what Raven is intended to be after all?
I'm Thomas the developer of Raven :)
We're still deciding about the window behavior, should we have only one window which keep trace of every tabs and app you open ? But then how to reset your main browser window ?
We have a lot of to consider, we don't want to provide a too limited experience, that why at the moment Raven behave as other browser, but we will adjust it soon.
I would like Raven to be this physical place that contains my most important web fixtures. That is, whenever I want to access Hacker News, instead of opening Chrome and hitting a bookmark, I'd just go to Raven and know that HN will be right there, no loading required. And right next to it, there will be Reddit and Github and Gmail.
But that creates an interesting problem: Twitter and Gmail will auto-reload its contents. Hacker News will not. Therefore, I'd like to set some fixed auto-refresh interval for the HN "app" (but not Gmail).
I don't know whether that is in line with your vision for Raven, but it certainly is something I would like!
Additionally, I'd like to have the option to open external links in my regular browser.
