		<description>I cannot believe somebody already suggested that "Flock as the dashboard for Web 2.0 just makes sense."

Has everyone already drank the 'Web 2.0' Kool-Aid? 

In any case, Flock is nice to look at and it demonstrates what can be done to better integrate various discovery, communication and interactive services. Not a whole lot that cannot be done w. say Firefox extensions, but too early to judge.

We have to see how easily it can add support for APIs of services of the future, how open it will be to build on ... and most importantly, whether it proves valuable enough for users to make the switch again (whatever browser -&#62; Firefox -&#62; Flock). If the target is the tech community, then perhaps there's not much to worry about; otherwise, anyone who pushes out a new browser does need to worry about helping users get through the learning curve.

Time will tell ... either way, please let go of this "Web 2.0" already :)

		<description>Really, in the turn of the century everythings turning cute and colourful...and i like it. With the advent of Ajax based web application and the whole Web 2.0 idea compiled with creations like firefox and flock, things are really shaping up nicely for independant devs and bloggers/dreamers.</description>

		<description>Love the concept of Flock!  While Firefox has some great overall usability, what does it offer that's truly revolutionary?  Flock as the dashboard for Web 2.0 just makes sense.

I wonder if they're going to keep functionality constricted to the Web2.0 "elite": del.icio.us, flickr, etc.  While I love del.icio.us, I am a Smugmug addict.  (BTW that's the best photo sharing site for people who CARE about their photos)  I want that integration for the blogging tool.

Anyway, Flock is awesome.  (I just wish I had it)</description>

		<description>Been using it on Linux the last few days - it's nice on the eyes &#38; has nice features.

A gmail feature simi* to the flickr &#38; blogging features would be sorta neat.

Also, why is it defaulting to yahoo search? ;-) *coughBUYOUT?cough*</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;Flock &#8220;Might&#8221; Help&lt;/strong&gt;

	Any app that helps with making my life easier or simplier or shaves 5 seconds of the tasks I&#8217;m going to try and probably use. So I&#8217;m jealous that so many people are now using Flock and I&#8217;m not, yet.

		<description>I've been using it all day today and while I've found many annoyances, and bugs, with a few more fixes I hope the next version goes invite public beta, as much as flock, del.icio.us, wordpress.com can cope with. ;) I've only had mine crash once on closing it after a full days use. I haven't had any speed issues, its actually very fast in general but then I wasn't importing thousands of del.icio.us bookmarks.
