A Real Browser inside Emacs
There have been efforts to combine real browsing with Emacs experience. Conkeror is one such example. But, conkeror only provides an emacs-like navigational experience. It is borne out of a Firefox extension and is based on Gecko. On the other hand, ezbl , an infant written in pure Emacs Lisp, uses uzbl. Uzbl is a webkit powered framework and is built upon unix philosophy. Ezbl essentially takes care of the configuration/control stuff. It runs an instance of uzbl inside emacs patched for xembed support. For more information visit the developer's blog.
