Where the Flock Did This Browser Come From



A revolutionary new browser that will take the browser wars to a new level

Once in a while a piece of software comes along that re-invents the internet landscape. You probably haven’t heard of ‘Flock’, but I guarantee you will be. Basically Flock is a new revolutionary browser that has it all, yes even the kitchen sink. If you are just a casual net surfer then this wonderful new browser will hardly blow wind up your skirt, but for the many internet freaks out there that the internet is there bread and butter, Flock will undoubtedly be the saviour of their world.

Flock was built on the foundations of Firefox, and once its installed there is no hassle at all migrating all your browser setting, passwords and favourites to Flock, the process is done seamlessly and although Flock seems a lot like Firefox it is all so much more powerful.

All your social sites fully integrate into flock, facebook, twitter, you name it. Flock has a very customizable My World tab featuring your favourite feeds, friend activity, favourite media, and favourite sites. You can totally manage facebook and even individually interact with face book friends with a very nifty People Sidebar. There’s also a neat Media Bar giving fast access to your favourite media streams complete with a video stream search facility for the major video stream sites such as Flickr and Youtube, there’s a RSS Feed Side Bar and let me not forget a time saving and Account and Services side bar. If you’re into blogging you can publish and update your Wordpress and Blogger blogs with the browsers blog editor.

You can easily ‘borrow’ web content and share it or drag and drop it onto your on sites all within the browser, to be honest I could keep going and going and going.

Although the best thing I love about this new browser is the total lack of hang-ups, it works seamlessly and is very responsive and despite the complete thrashing I gave it while opening twenty six tabs it never skipped a beat, not even once.

All in all I think Flock has something for everyone, net freaks around the world will love it as well as hard core internet marketers. Flock just seems to force you to get more done in a lot less time; it’s no doubt going to have the vast internet community ‘flocking’ to it.

Well done Mozilla! Internet Explorer won’t know what hit it!
