What the Flock?
What the Flock indeed. Flock is a new browser based on Firefox that is currently in private beta.
Flock is going to be a social browser that will take full advantage of Web 2.0. It will integrate with blogs, such as Wordpress, and social sites like Del.icio.us and Flickr. The best information we could find about Flock was on UNEASYsilence.
The internet has transformed into a giant melting pot of webapps / services with social network integration. It’s all about sharing isn’t it? Tags, bookmarks, photostreams, weblogs… I know all about sharing! I often find myself bouncing between dozens of tabs. One tab for del.icio.us, another for Flickr, a third for Wordpress. You get the picture. Why can’t everything be seamless? We need synergy! We need Flock.
Now the question we have is, when the Flock can we use it?
