One of my friends recently took a position at Flock. He showed me their browser and I decided to try it. After about 1 week, I have pretty much switched to using it as my primary web browser both at home and at work. Flock is based on the Firefox browser which I was already using and so the transition was easy. Almost all the extensions I use are available for Flock with the exception of Colorful Tabs which I miss. You have to re-download your extensions because Flock cannot import them from your Firefox installation. Some nice things that Flock adds are the photo, newsreader and blogging integrations. I like the way you can see Flickr photos from within the browser and it includes an uploading client as well. I exported my OPML file from Newsgator and the integrated RSS reader in Flock was able to import it without any problem. I am enjoying the integrated RSS reader better than what I had a Newsgator. Flock is only at version 0 .7 so I'm sure there's a lot more that they are planning to add to it. I could go on about all the cool things I discovered about it and some of the minor annoyances it's just easier if you try yourself. This is a cool product and it's free of course.
