Flocking fantastic

You may or may not be aware of Flock - a new Firefox based browser. It's a super tasty piece of software. It's got that firm Firefox base, onto which you can spread all your favourite plug-in goodness, but the icing on this particular cake is the Web 2.0 functionality. You can blog straight from the browser (as I'm doing), post to, and view pictures straight from, flickr, and you can set it up so your favourites and your del.ico.us tagged pages are one and the same, across browsers. It also manages said favourites and RSS feeds in the same nifty interface.

Excitingly, it's just the first of a number of Firefox based browsers (and tools like Greasemonkey) that try to redefine the browsing experience, which has been surprisingly static since Netscape first exploded on the scene.
