Thread: Flock

Flock basically a complete entertainment package aimed at those who are addit:ted to social networking. -Resource usage is a bit on the higher side - with services such as the media bar and a tab open, it uses about 70 MB of RAM.

Overall, Flock has a rather retro look to it and once installed, you are immediately greeted with options to log into the social networking sites, Facebook, MySpace and Twitter. It also has an integrated media bar that allows users to search through Youtube, Flickr or Truveo without interfering with the rest of the browser.

Other sidebars also help you sort between your feeds, social networking accounts, and other services such as maintaining blogs and media sharing.

Once you are logged into a social networking site, your information is saved and any updates can be viewed on the people sidebar, even when you are not actually on that particular page or tab.

The Vleb Clipboard is another useful feature of Flock, which allows you to highlight and drag random text 10 the sidebar which is then stored there for later use. Image uploading is equally easy with Flock.
