The Flock Experience

I just came across a new web browser Flock. and found it to be amazing.
It is optimized for media, blogging and much more. In fact I am writing this blog from the inbuilt editor of Flock itself.
  1. Lets talk about the blogging editor first : Like scribefire extension of Firefox, Flock blogger could be configured to any blogging service. It has options for Blogger.com, Wordpress.com, Typepad.com, Livejournal.com, Blogsome.com, Xanga.com and even for any self-hosted blog. Setting it up is very easy and the editor interface is like that of Blogger.com editor. It has tabs for Editor, Source and even a preview tab. Also there are options for saving as draft and the best one is to save it on a web clipboard to be used later on.
  2. Photo and Video. Flock activates various special effects when you log in to flickr, photobucket, youtube etc account. A media stream (Media Minibar) is generated and displayed on TOP enabling easy browse of Media. Its hard to explain this feature, you just have to experience it yourself and I can assure you its great.
  3. Online Favourites . del.icio.us, digg and various other feeds are here. They all form part of your web page.
  4. Flock My World. This is the central place where all the configured streams are displayed. It could be the blogging sites, Feeds and even Media Streams and Accounts.
  5. Upload Photo. This option can upload photo to Flickr, photobucket etc. The uploader has a cool feature wherein we can drag and drop the photo.
  6. Some More features include Indicators, Notifications, Find and Favorites.
Please do try it out, it is definitely a next generation web browser. Flock has got every thing that Firefox has, add to it are many features which make it my default browser on my new shiny Ubuntu.
