Something called gotgame rogue is a web browser that you can bring up in a game(much like how x-fire works) that wont need you to alt tab anymore. I think its a cool app...obviously it has a list of supported games

During our Beta period, we are gathering information on what games work flawlessly, and what games we need to tweak. We need your help.

Please tell us in the New Games Forum if you have tested games that work, which are not listed below or if you have a game that does not work with Rogue that you would like us to support.

Please tell us in the Technical Support Forum if you have tested games that work for us, but not for you. The more comprehensively you describe your system specifications the easier it will be to fix the problem.

The following games have been tested by our staff and work with Rogue’s overlay technology:

• Age of Conan
• Battlefield 2
• Call of Duty
• Call of Duty 2 (not on menu screens)
• Civilization IV
• Counter-Strike: Source
• Counter-Strike 1.6
• Gears of War
• Guild Wars
• Half-Life 2
• Halo: Combat Evolved
• Neverwinter Nights
• Neverwinter Nights 2
• Portal
• Unreal Tournament III
• Warhammer 40,000
• Warhammer: Dawn of War
• World of Warcraft

Currently, Rogue’s overlay technology does not support the following games:

• Call of Duty 4
  mad.gif
• Diablo 2
• Doom 3
• Quake 4
• Starcraft
• Warcraft III
• Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory

End is nigh...Steam is unto it!

Remember in-game browser Rogue? Well, maybe not for long. Valve's horning in on the action, which means browser overlays are officially all the rage. There's one included in the new Steam Beta client.

Quoth Valve:

    There's a new Steam Beta client available. To access the Beta, go to File -> Settings, and on the Account tab will be a drop down. Select Steam Client Candidate, and then allow Steam to restart itself. Here are the specific changes:

    - Updated game overlay web browser to support generic web browsing, including web sites that use flash
    - Fixed games list scrolling behavior with pageup/pagedown and mouse wheel
    - Many back-end Steamworks changes in preparation for a Steamworks SDK update

PC gaming is starting to enable and expect a level of multitasking that is seriously starting to concern me. But I guess when you're camping out as the Sniper and you've got nothing better to do, might as well schedule a credit card payment, or update your Facebook status.
