Here is a screen shot of the Flock favorites Manager (via Flickr) Notice how its integrates with del.icio.us via the del.icio.us API. Maybe Microsoft will include a feature like this in IE 7 since they have about 360 days or so before it gets released with Vista. OK enough IE bashing. However, I really do hope Microsoft is paying attention. These are features that all the browsers should have.

Well today my brother Adam called me about getting new drivers for his new ATI card. I went to the ATI web site today and I noticed that they have released Drivers for Windows Vista! Damn! I just unistalled Vista because of the lack of driver support. Oh well. I guess when the next major build of Vista is released on MSDN, I will reinstall it knowing that I can get drivers for it!

In case you have not heard of this new browser called Flock, I highly suggest that you take a look at it.  It’s an open source project that is using the same code base as Firefox.  (They have not forked the project, so many of these features could be added later to Firefox.  Time will tell if they will be able to do so).  So far I’m pretty impressed with it.

It’s part of the new Web 2.0 movement.  They are taking browsing to  the next level.  Gone are bookmarks!  Instead the bookmarks are stored online at del.icio.us.  What’s good about this service is that all your bookmarks are online and you can access them from other computers.  To me this is a huge feature because I am constantly switching between my mac and windows computer.  When I am at a client’s site with my Windows notebook, I could really use some of my bookmarks that have been stored on my mac.  This new feature makes it possible.  Another cool feature of del.icio.us is that you can share your bookmarks with others.  del.icio.us works also with firefox, safari, opera and I believe IE.

Some of the other features include a built in blogging editor, (using it right now to post this blog), an advanced integrated RSS reader and several other new features I have yet to try out.

One of the other things I noticed right away about it is that it looks cleaner than Firefox.  (my complaint about most open source projects)

Take a look and let me know what you all think!
