So what if you can get the Firefox 3 Beta? Mikko introduced me to my new favorite browser: Flock!
At first glance, it looks like a heavily-skinned Firefox (and it partly is, Flock being built on-top of the Mozilla engine,) but the greatness lies in the nifty little add-ons. It has support for, ehem, Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, YouTube, Photobucket, Piczo, Blogger, Blogsome, LiveJournal, Typepad, WordPress.com, Xanga, del.icio.us and Magnolia. (I know, some of our other favorite sites still aren’t supported)
What does this mean? It means that whenever you have Flock open, you’re one click away from opening a sidebar that shows updates in your subscribed services, or, you could open the blog editor to OMNIPOST in your blogs, or, you could upload/browse photos from your Photobucket, — and, my absolute favorite — the star button next to the address box gives you the option of SIMULTANEOUSLY saving a link in your computer AND your del.icio.us account! (That’s less clicks for when updating all the supported sites!)
And since its Mozilla, Firefox add-ons are compatible. (You just have to re-install ‘em again.) This makes most of my toolbar bookmark buttons redundant.
Plus, I added the Multiply and StumbleUpon toolbars, which adds 2 more sites that my Flock supports. Get it while it’s hot! (I’m a sucker for neat GUIs … and rounded edges. Yum!)
