The underdog web browser Flock recently released Flock 2.0, based on the Mozilla Web Browser. The so called “social web browser” adds support for MySpace and FaceBook in the new release which looks good so far with our tests and has slowly moved in as a replacement for the usually used Firefox Browser.
If you have tried Flock in the past and got disappointed, don’t leave it by that; you must, you need, you should try Flock 2.0 which comes with great features that only Flock and Mozilla’s Firefox possess at the moment. Including the advanced “as-you-type” browser history when you type something in the address bar, ability to resume unfinished downloads even if you you came to close the browser by accident or by a critical error. And the ability to save multi-tabbed sessions for the next time you start the browser.
One negative point of view that we could raise is the fact that the Flock Community is quite small, and that Flock does not have a lot of themes available, in fact they’ve only gotten two. But if we speak from the plugins and add-on point of view, you can still make use of your favorite Firefox Add-Ons and install them into flock without any problem.
Flock’s standard features also include for Social Media Sites like YouTube, Twitter and Flickr, and as well as support for Digg Pownce and a couple more. You can even blog from your browser to your self-hosted WordPress blog, LiveJournal Account and other blogging solutions.
If you still don’t feel convinced about it, to see is to believe! Try the browser first-hand and tell us what you think!

On topic:
FLOCK is the best!
#Princess→ wala na pera eh, so how is the flocky experience so far?
I just drop by to see you. Ang pogi mo pala. When will you turn 18 at liligawan kita, hehehe. Joke only. LOL
FLOCK? Never heard of it and it’s a very corny and silly name for a browser.
-English yan hah.
Hey Kevin,
Thanks so much for the kind words about Flock, they’re much appreciated!
Clearly you are a hardcore Flockstar…shoot me a line at the email address below and I will hook you up with a shirt so you can show your Flockstar pride! 🙂
Just so you know, we definitely have some more themes coming down the pipe. We just recently hired a fulltime theme developer, Brett Bodine (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/user/488141), who will be bringing us some fantastic new themes and also porting some of his very popular Firefox themes.
Flock’n’roll,

Seems almost a month ago since I downloaded and used Flock in tandem with Opera. It is fast but not that fast when uploading files like Opera. I find some features that gave it an advantage over the other. Believe me, they’re both the best browsers I’ve tried.
The flock supports different plugins like Flickr and it is a good job from Yahoo. Ya it is better than google chrome,mozillaa.
Gokulprabhus last blog post..Mp3 players vs iPods
@Gokulprabhu – Wow, glad that there’s a fella who agrees with us regarding this case.
ive used flock before, ang daming missing na add-ons, di ko ma-install.. maybe di compatible sa version ng windows ko yan..
