Default Flock

I've searched but didn't see anything on this, it's a new web browser called Flock, takes a design from firefox but in it's own way, so it's still really nice. But what makes Flock different is that it it has in-built features on todays web2.0 sites.

For example, the following sites will activate on flock when you log in:

- YouTube
- Photobucket
- flickr
- eblogger
- wordpress
- blogsome
- xanga
- typepad
- livejournal
- magnolia
- delicious


That's just a part of it, the address to the site is below.

Flock - The Social Web Browser

Yea, I had a look at their new one (version 1.0) and it's going to have support for such sites as facebook and myspace and other social networking sites like that.

a friend told me the background on this so we'll see if i can accurately remember it.
apparently it uses whatever default browser you have installed as it's base but instead of running that full application it simplifies it to just the registry files on your machine. it's goal is to not use much system resources while still giving you the full web experience. it's a great alternative to the horror that is IE.
i still prefer Firefox or Opera.
a different friend told me that they had issues running some javascript or ajax with it but i think that's just a localized phenomenon.
