It's browser-in-a-browser action with Bitty Browser
Hey man, do you want to get small? Well have I got the browser for you. Actually it's not a browser. It's a clever bit of code which allows you to embed a web browser on a web page. Picture-in-picture for your pages. Bitty Browser. Kooky.Why in the world would you do this? Well, if you wanted to let someone jump to another site while on your site, it's an idea.

For addded fun, the developers have some e-z links for popular services like Backpack, Del.icio.us, Flickr, Technorati, even MSNSpaces.
Slap all those on a page, get the 30-inch LCD fired up, and bam: all your 'net life on one big web page. What else can you dream up with this?

I can fly through and review the links and cut and paste what I want to go into my notes, all in one interface. Very sweet.

It'd be neat if someone could hack Bitty Browser into a Dashboard widget.
