Flock [DISCONTINUED] description
|
The Social Web Browser built for Facebook and Twitter
Support for Flock browsers will be discontinued as of April 26th, 2011. The developers would like to thank their loyal users around the world for their support, and encourage the Flock community to migrate to Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
Flock is an award-winning browser, built on Chromium technology and designed for the way that we use the web today. With Flock, you can easily connect with friends, check email, blog, publish photos, and receive news updates about the topics that are important to you easily from within your browser.
Flock is designed to serve the needs of today’s web users by making publishing and consuming information on the web incredibly easy. Flock has many innovative features to enhance your web experience.
Flock’s “People Sidebar” showcases all of your friends from popular sites like: Facebook, YouTube, Flickr, Twitter and Digg so that you can easily view their latest activity and effortlessly share with them by way of a simple drag-and-drop action.
You can also subscribe to media streams by opening Flock’s “Media Bar” so that you never miss photos and videos that match your favorite topics, or come from your favorite publishers.
If you’d like to upload photos, Flock has an integrated photo uploader so that you don’t have to manage yet another piece of desktop software. If you are into blogging, you’ll love Flock’s blog editor which lets you add new posts to your blog from anywhere on the web. Here are some key features of "Flock [DISCONTINUED]":
Share web pages, photos, and video:
· Update your status and make comments from anywhere on the web New Flock starts fast
It loads pages fast:
· And it handles JavaScript really fast
Most of the features in Flock use JavaScript:
· The JavaScript engine in Chromium allows Flock to keep you up to date with all your friends and favorite feeds, while keeping the browser's performance top notch
The New Flock Sidebar:
· The sidebar is the hub of activity in Flock. It keeps you informed with feed content and social streams so you don't have to leave the web page you are on. As soon as you sign into your social services and/or subscribe to RSS and ATOM feeds, the sidebar starts delivering what's new with your friends and favorite content
Channel Surf the Web:
· The sidebar works like the channels on a TV. Use the "channel changer" drop down menu at the top of the sidebar to see just friends on Facebook, just friends on Twitter, all friends, just feeds, etc. But this is better than TV, because you can create any channel you want!
Share everything with Flock:
· Talk about the news, the funny video you just found, or anything else you stumble upon. Just click the Talk button, write a comment, and get back to what you were doing. We'll automatically add the link, and even shorten it for you.
Browser Extensions:
· We know there are lots of people who want to customize and personalize their online experience, and browser extensions can be a great way to do that. Google Chrome extensions work with Flock.
Who says you can't take it with you:
· Flock provides you the option of creating a free account that stores your favorite sites and feeds, your social networking accounts, and all the groups you make for your sidebar. You can access your account from any Flock browse.
