It's 2008, a period in time where everyone has a Facebook, Wordpress blog, Twitter account, Flickr, del.icio.us, and more, all of which are meant to be "social" in that they bring people together. But, what about bringing those services together? Meet Flock, an internet browser that does more than just browse. With integration in majority of the major Web 2.0 services, Flock hopes to bring together both people and the services they use. Flock is interoperability at it's best.
While the current release of Flock, 1.2, holds it's own in the browser wars of today, I want to take a peek at the future, Flock 2.0. While Flock 2.0 may not be the official current public release, it shows the same promise that Firefox 3 did a few months ago. But, Flock is built based on Firefox, so Flock 2.0 is going to have all the awesome social features of Flock plus all the amazinf features that we have come to know and love from Firefox 3:
- The Awesome Bar
- MAJOR Performance gains
- Operating System integration
- Powerful "Favorites" management
- Security improvements
- And much more
