Flock Yeah!

Desde aquellos viejos tiempos de Internet Explorer, pasando por los intentos de Netscape, Opera y la venganza del Open Source de Firefox, ¿quién podría evolucionar el Internet browsing y ser un verdadero navegador de web 2.0? Ok lo confieso, con la llegada de IE7 abandoné Firefox y esto gracias al toolbar de Google del que por sus botones personalizados y suggestions en la caja de búsqueda no puedo prescindir. Hoy puede ser que la historia cambie…

Flock es un web browser basado en Mozilla Firefox con un montón de extensiones encima que lo vuelven el ultimate Social Browser, tal vez no para todos pero sí para los que como yo tienen cuenta en cuando menos 4 de los siguientes servicios web 2.0: Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, YouTube, Photobucket, Piczo, Blogger, Blogsome, LiveJournal, Typepad, WordPress, del.ici.us, Magnolia and so on. En mi opinión, una cuenta de estas eres normal, 2 sabes navegar, más de 4 eres un teto! That includes myself!

Flock icon.

¿Qué promete Flock?
  • Un home de feeds muy acá con todos los feeds del social networking.
  • Lee del.ici.us, entonces tus bookmarks están en el web.
  • Puedes taggear favorites… sabemos que taggear es lo de hoy. (Por cierto, taggen mucho y su vida en unos años va a ser muy fácil)
  • Lo que maneja tus sitios favoritos lee historial, esto es una maravilla cuando no te acuerdas de una página con la que te topaste alguna vez; desde el toolbar de búsqueda te acuerdas de una palabra la escribes y busca al mismo tiempo en tu search engine y tu history! Nice!
  • Se integra machín a Fbk, Flick y Photobucket, tiene un botón de “Media Bar” en donde están tus fotos del web, todas! Y además son drag and drop!
  • Puedes postear a tu blog desde un sidebar.
  • Puedes leer el home de flickr, facebook, youtube en un sidebar.
  • Y además tiene un cute GUI!
Suena bien? Lo estaré usando y luego vemos si perdura entre mis programas.
