This is apparently the number 1 web browser in Japan. Doesn't look particularly special to me, has anybody here used it before?

it has the same icons as explorer. and it doesnt really look all that special

 

[Costello]

it's not really a browser -- it uses the Internet Explorer layout engine ("trident") and/or Mozilla's engine (Gecko) to function.
Just like Avant Browser, MyIE2/Maxthon Browser, and so many others...
they're good, but being based on IE (support for Gecko is low) they are, by nature, flawed.

Flock 2 beta, based on Mozilla's Firefox 3 looks interesting too.

Flock integrates social networking and media services including Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, Blogger, Gmail, Yahoo Mail, etc.
When logging into any of the supported social services, Flock automatically activates these services within its features:

* Flock can indicate when friends have updated their profile, uploaded photos or other items.
* Flock has internal features that allow sharing of text, links, photos and videos.
* Flock has its own "media bar" allowing preview of online videos and photos, and subscription to photo and video feeds.
* Flock's Feed Reader organizes Atom and RSS feeds.
* Flock's Blog Editor allows direct posting into a designated blog, along with being a blog reader.
* Flock's web mail component allows users to check web-based mail without going to the site,
compose new messages, and drag and drop pictures and videos from the mediabar or webclipboard into a new email messege.
* Flock also allows for third-party add-ons, including a number of Firefox extensions.

No, it's a custom interface and functionality of Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer engines.
