Ghostzilla: The Invisible Browser

Posted By The Foo On 27th September 2006 @ 22:00 In Technology & Gizmos, Fascinating or Weird | 2 Comments

Finally, something that allows you to surf at work without getting noticed. ;-) Enter [1] Ghostzilla - the invisible browser …

[1] Ghostzilla is a free open source Web browser like Firefox, but it shows up and disappears instantly, discreetly, blended with your application — any application — so the Web pages look like part of it and not like the Web at all. (Read here [3] how)

What would you use it for?

  1. Hide from your boss and coworkers.
  2. Survive endless meetings (if you have a laptop).
  3. Have a browser instantly available and dismissable within your work application, washed out from ads and unnecessary pictures. This sounds useful — except it will help you develop that attention deficit disorder. Seriously.

The above example is Ghostzilla blended into Microsoft Outlook (spot the the black and white Yahoo page within Outlook preview area). It blends in with MS Word, Internet Explorer and more. See more screenshot and animation examples [4] here.

Just a note/ disclaimer: I am not responsible for any consequences of getting caught using this browser at work!
