What the Flock?

This blog entry is brought to you by the all new Flock browser. Actually, it's not officially released yet. I only tripped accross it because it had such a pretty icon on someone's XPI (mozilla extension) download page. Anyway, it's a web browser (using Mozilla's Gecko engine) that adds communal functionality as part of the core feature set - blogging, for instance. It's basically a modified Firefox 1.5, not just an extension. It's not finished yet, so who knows what else it will be. Anyway, it has a pretty skin, and it allows me to blog painlessly. So check it out. Took me all of 1.5 minutes to install it and hook up with my blogging account.
