My new favorite web browser

Post by Wally Balljacker » Wed Nov 30, 2005 5:58 am

I just downloaded this browser called 'Flock', which is based on Mozilla, and I'm really liking it. It looks amazing right out of the box. Much more slick looking than standard Firefox. Faster to start up too. One feature I'm really getting addicted to is this new 'star' feature, where anytime you want to bookmark a page, you click on the button, and it automatically saves it to your del.icio.us account, and locally on your machine as well. Really cool. Flock is still in heavy development, but even at it's early stage I definitely see using this as my main browser. Download version 0.4.10 from http://flock.com/developer/

Here's a screenshot I took showing off how nice it looks. :)

Looks very safari-like thought.

Firefox 1.5

I've been using Flock, off and on, for about a month and it has replaced Opera as my "number 2" browser. Yesterday I downloaded FF 1.5 and it felt and looked at lot like Flock, which must have used the FF 1.5 beta code for its base. I still prefer FF but Flock is certainly worth a test drive.
