Flock, a web browser built is on Mozilla’s Firefox codebase, which provides social networking and Web 2.0 facilities into its user interface. The browser supports MS Windows, Mac OS X and Linux platforms and is available as a free download.

Features

• Flock 2.0 integrates many social networking and media services like Flickr, Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Yahoo mail, Blogger, MySpace and more. The moment you log into any of the supported social services, Flock can track updates from friends like information of uploaded photos, profiles and more.
• It has features of native sharing of text, links, photos and videos.
• A web mail component in the web browser allows users to check the supported web-based email off site, drag and drop pictures from media bar or web clip board into a new e-mail and compose new messages.
• It has a feed reader to support Atom, RSS and Media RSS feeds.
• The “media bar” shows preview of online videos and photos as well as subscribe to photo and video feeds.
• It has a blog editor and reader, which allows direct posting into any desired blog.
• The web browser has support for third party add-ons, which includes a number of Firefox extensions.

With so many features, Flock is definitely a highly useful web browser, but it has certain features like complicated user interface and buggy nature. The recent versions of Flock include an option to turn off the data collection feature at the time of installation.
