I've downloaded Flock and played with it. I'm wondering why they don't implement all those neat functions as Firefox extensions instead of a seperate browser application. Imagine you have both (Firefox and Flock) on your local machine and security updates must be installed, then you have to install them for both.
My actual computer is a Centrino ThinkPad, but after the buy-out of the ThinkPad line I'm sure that my next laptop will surely be a 15" Powerbook. What a neat machine!
All the world is talking about environmental pollution, everyone is thinking about environmental friendly products... and Microsoft invents a one-use-and-throw-away DVD. Very nice, Microsoft, very nice. This shows how innovative you are.
BTW: £3 for one view? If I want to see a movie, I go to my local DVD rental shop. Here in Germany, you can rent brand new movies for about 1,60.

I think this is a very good example for what happens if a company gets to big.
Imagine a small software company would do the same: "What, you want us to support OpenDocument? No, I think that's a very bad idea. We won't do that."
What would be the customers reply: "Thank you, Sirs. We think that we try it with one of your competitors."
How can it be that a software company tries to totally ignore a customers wishes? Hey, guys at MS: The customer is the one who pays. You're the one that wants money from customers. Either listen to what your customers want or go to hell!!!

Looks like this GPG based project tries to get a nearly similar functionality with GnuPG. A relay server between your mail client and the mail server.
Works without flaws since many months. The only thing I complain about is the lacking support of IMAP.

Some neat features of the iHP-series which iPod lacks:
And now iHP features Ogg Vorbis. Please tell me: Why would one prefer iPod?
