Internet Explorer? Old and busted, Firefox? Ok I still use it, but Flock seems pretty sweet so far. Right now there is a pre-beta release out, which is based on the Firefox code base. The layout is very similar expect that Flock is labeled as a “social browser” - it can integrate with weblogs, phone sharing and other services on the web.
Some of the benefits that I like are:
- Integrates with del.icio.us to manage bookmarks - they can be browsed directly from Flock without having to visit your del.icio.us page
- Ability to have “collections” of favorites - if you are like me you have a crapload of favorites, being able to have collections for Work, Home etc is nice
- Has support for publishing to WordPress, Movable Type, Typepad and Blogger blogs using a built in blog editor. If you are browsing a page you want to blog about - Flock has a “Blog This” button
- Built in Search - similar to Firefox but with more options - including IMDB
- Automatically detects RSS feeds in your favorites
- Supports extensions
In my opinion, it’s worth checking out - Click for a tour of Flock
