Super Fast Social Networking Browser - Flock Review
Flock is a super fast social networking browser based on Chromium. It was originally based on Firefox but has now transitioned to a Chromium base, providing faster performance and superior stability. Flock offers broad integration with a wide range of social networks and blog sites, including Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Flickr, LinkedIn, and more.
When you start Flock, you have the option to import settings from Firefox or Safari. The Chromium engine has significantly improved the browsing speed, making it lightning fast. It is also lighter on resources, using minimal CPU processes.
Flock maintains its focus on the social aspect, with special tools to keep track of friends from different social networking sites, write directly on your blog, upload images to your photo sharing site, and access your favorite social sites like Digg, Twitter, and YouTube. However, a drawback is that all the social networking features open on sidebars, limiting the ability to have all of them active simultaneously. Despite this, it is convenient to update Twitter or other social media within the browser, eliminating the need for a separate client.
Flock 3.5 is the fastest version yet, thanks to the transition to Chromium. However, it now faces competition from RockMelt, another Chromium-based browser aiming to dominate the social networking landscape. Flock 3.5 is a great choice for those looking for a fast and efficient social networking browser.
