Run browsers directly from the web

As every good web developer, you have to test your website under different browsers such as Firefox, Safari, Opera, Chrome, etc. And of course, all of these programs must be installed on your machine and kept up to date. This is where Xenocode comes in : you connect to their website and thanks to a virtualization process, you launch the application you want from a catalogue, without the need to download or install it. Very handy !
