[...] As I noted in my review of the Flock developer preview, Flock is a revolutionary web browser built around the needs of the modern day web surfer. Many things have changed since that developer preview. Code was rewritten, some things were programmed from scratch but the concept remained the same. The Firefox-based Flock aims to be your browser of choice with several key features aimed at the new generation of social web users. The number one question Flock has received is why canâ€™t Flock just roll everything into an extension rather than a browser. The answer is simple. It is not possible to accomplish all that Flock does with a mere extension. You will soon see how this plays out. Flock isnâ€™t any ordinary browser, it is the browser for you and your friends.

[...] All of you know about Mozilla’s Fox : Firefox(soon it will become some sea creature with SeaMonkey) burning the good out of the web featuring the great tab-browsing, pop-up blocking and all the good sorta features. As with everything great we want to get it better, better for us, suiting us for the better and this where Flock comes. Flock is a modded/alternative version of Firefox bundling its all great features with new ones that you would soon become ‘addicted to‘ : all this to get you on the track with you favourite blogs and the great ocean of the web itself.So it has to be good enough being mentionned here : yeah indeed! I will leave with you the task of checking it by yourself. Wanna Flock you also : download it >> here [...]

Unfortunatly there is a bug which had no known fix… sometimes it just hangs when trying to recognise a Wordpress blog (I think maybe 2.0?) well I found a great article on how to fix this here: http://www.darcynorman.net/2006/01/19/how-to-configure-a-wordpress-2-blog-in-flock

[...] I am writing this blog post not from my usual WordPress interface, but from the built-in blogging function in the spankin’ new Firefox-based open source browser Flock. Flock is a web browser cooked up by 11 or 12 kids in a garage in Silicon Valley designed to make the most of the “Web 2.0″. You can post to your blog, add social bookmarks to del.icio.us, and access Flickr all from within the browser. Flock is only beta, so there are still some kinks to be worked out, but it is very cool. Check out a more detailed review of Flock. [...]

[...] Flock is a new browser based on Mozilla/Firefox Gecko rendering engine that provides some nifty features for “modern” web browsing, like built-in blogging, photo sharing, and del.icio.us integration. Go here to find out more about it and here to download it. It seemed pretty neat in the short time I used it before it crashed, which says something about its maturity. (If that scares you, put down the download and slowly back away.) My nitpick at this point is that it claims to import settings from your other browsers but it didn’t seem to get my Bookmarks Bar, which is really irritating because I use those links all the time. It’s a little early to make too many judgments…it’ll get better over time. flock [...]

Wow, Paul, this is a great review. I really appreciate the time you’ve put into it and am glad you’ve formed a favorable impression of the browser. We’ve got a lot of work yet to do, and seeing feedback like this provides really good incentive to work even harder to make things better.

I really don’t see the point of this browser, all the “new features” are also avaliable on Firefox through extensions. If they are still using the firefox source code, why don’t they just make a big extension having all those features? But the time will tell, the good thing is that is opensource and I hope they really avoid forking firefox code.

Cheers!

You can save drafts both online and locally. Select your account and then click Save as Draft. If the Draft account is selected (which is a local account), it will save there. It’s a pretty neat feature for writing posts offline.
