September 03, 2014 at 09:56AM: You can save 4 hours per week or more by switching to Power Portal as your web browser. Power Portal is a Smarter Web Browser that saves you hours of time by helping you do more in less clicks. For example: When you do a search on google, typically you click the first result and click around on that page. But to go back to google, you have to retype your search or click back 5-10 times. Power Portal takes your list of web results with you and stores them in a sidebar, so you can simply click the next item instead of going back and forth. You could also apply the same search term to another search engine. Browsing a social network is much faster with the mobile view in our left sidebar while opening links in the main window.
