Get Flock The Social Web Browser

Friday, November 9, 2007

 


Promoting Flock in an utter might be seen as strange by any who saw my previous utter about installing BlockSite to block Facebook's Beacon (http://www.utterz.com/~u-NDk2ODUxMg/utt.php) from taking data from your surfing activities and showing it in your Facebook News Feed. Rest assured, the BlockSite extension is completely optional, and some people like to be extra social on the web. Me, I prefer some interaction on Facebook, but would like it to be limited to just Facebook, and the occasional public utter I make which goes to my news feed thanks to the (awesome) Utterz application on Facebook. All in all, start Flocking ;)

Flock is based off of Mozilla Firefox, with a few tweaks to the code to make it run smoother (as Firefox has of late become increasingly bloated) and to provide a better experience for those who are hooked on the social networking aspects of the internet. Flock can be very easily integrated with a multitude of services, especially thanks to the new People sidebar. The People sidebar allows deep integration with Facebook, Flick, Youtube and Twitter, with presumably more services on the way. Flock is also a great browser for those blog a lot, as you can snippets of the web in the Web Clipboard. Images and texts you save to the clipboard are saved with permalinks back to the originating page, so you don't incur in blatant plagiarism. :D That's all I can squeeze out, see ya next time ;)
