Once upon a time, oh say, 6 months ago, the hypemiesters descended on a new browser called Flock that wasn’t quite ready for primetime leading to the inevitable backlash. Flock, based on open-source Firefox code, was supposed to have nifty integration with blogs and photo sites and other such socially-oriented web 2.0 stuff but it wasn’t ready yet.
Still, the developers have continued hacking away and improving the product. Jason O’Grady says it’s his favorite now so I decided to give it a download. There’s a lot to like in the UI and features and it’s cross-platform, my new must-have feature since my work pc is a PC. This very blog post was written in the alpha 0.5.13 version (though a “real” beta is promised for next month). More later…
