View page source trick in firefox, flock

You may have read about firefox’s special about: pages like about:config, about:cache etc. Or you can go through Firefox about: pages to have an idea about them. There is one similar functionality in firefox which allows you to view page source of a page. You can type

view-source:http://www.google.com/

this in location bar to view page source of google.com.
So i have made this Bookmarklet to view page source: View Source (So you can drag this to your bookmark toolbar to have quick access).

Similarly you can type javascript: in your location bar to open java script error console.

Update1:
Key Board Shortcut: Use Ctrl+U to view page source
