Are you into social web browsing,blogging,photosharing,bookmarks sharing and more?If yes then there is a browser just for you!
Whoa! wait wait! dont start thinking about stability,trust and compatibility issues yet as this fresh product comes from the mozilla oven...So the browser is based on firefox but has more features than the latter...Lets see
Features
Well for flikr fans there is flikr integration so that you have a drag-and-drop option...For bloggers there are blogging tools..to elaborate, the blogging tools let you post from anypage and anything....suppose you are googling around and you spot a nice article you would like to post just go to tools and click on blog this! voila you are done!...Bookmarks have del.icio.us support...There is Technorati tagging,News aggregation,Full pages search(from cache),Photobucket integration
The del.icio.us integration is simply great..Instead of the traditional bookmarks feature here we can easily star a page and gets automatically integrated with your del.icio.us account.Also u can view your del.icio.us bookmarks by simply clicking on view favourites on the web.Although finding locally stored web pages is rather troublesome
The Web Search bar is comes ith a host of websites like google,yahoo ,amazon,answers etc so no need to download any extra toolbars.
You can get news feeds directly with the news feeds feature button which is located just on top.
A nice search preview starts working as u start typing in your toolbar.In this search preview as you start typing you get results related to local history,local favourites and yahoo results(should have been configurable!!!)
There is also a feature called snippets which lets you drag and drop images for later use(cool!)
Blogging support is good and supports most of the major blogging sites like Wordpress,Blogger,typepad,movepad,drupal,Livejournal and Drupal
There is a favourites toolbar which is equipped with links(or rather buttons) like Myspace,Mtv,Youtube and Invite a friend to Flock.
The basic features are same as firefox such as tabbed browsing,clearing pivate data and yes a good pop-up blocker etc.
Flock is a browser which is loaded with all the social web features like blogging,photo sharing and bookmarks sharing which makes it great for young users.
The Flock is available for windows,mac and linux without any major differences in features.
The looks are simply great.The neatly polished silver default theme of flock gives you a cool browsing experience.
Stability...it is quite stable eventhough its still in a BETA stage and does not crash most of the times.
As the software is in a beta stage many of us don't know about it...But what I think is this browser is the next big thing among addicted surfers as well as beginners.
Its not the browser that would fight in the browser war because its simply different from other browsers and its more than just a browser
Rating:Excellent! 4/5
Overall:This Browser Rocks!
Suggestion:Go get it! You'll have the power
