A look at Flock

I have a review of the Flock beta (0.7) up on NewsForge this afternoon. It’s Friday, I know, but don’t let that stop you from heading over and giving it a quick read.

I tested Flock on Ubuntu Linux — AMD64 and x86 — and was happily surprised to how well it works, particularly on AMD64. For the first time in… probably two years, I’ve gone pretty much all day without using Firefox, using Flock instead. It’s stable, fast, and has added goodies — like the Blog Post feature, which I’m using to write this very post.

I’m really looking forward to Flock 1.0, assuming the beta is reflective of the final product, it should be some damn good software.
