,----[ Quote ]
| Now that Firefox 2 is used as the backbone (instead of Firefox 1.5)
| new features like spell checking, anti-phishing, and session restore
| are all part of the browser. Flock is shaping up to be a great
| browser for anyone actively involved in social networks, and when
| the final release hits the Web I'm sure there will be a lot of
| people raving about it.

| In contrast, Jorn compared his new LogFS, "LogFS has an on-medium
| tree, fairly similar to Ext2 in structure, so mount times are O(1).
| In absolute terms, the OLPC system has mount times of ~3.3s for
| JFFS2 and ~60ms for LogFS."
