Flock - The Social Web Browser

Different browsers have different strengths and uses. This is Flock, taglined as "The Social Web Browser". I use it to optimize my Internet browsing of social media, keep up to date with RSS feeds and engage with my online social networking platforms like Facebook and Twitter. It has a social feel about it and although I still use Explorer, Firefox and Opera during the course of my day Flock is so much more than just an Internet Browser. The other good thing is that its easy to use. I can keep an eye on my Facebook updates without having to go to the site, I can see if I have pokes, events, messages or friends requests. I can follow my Twitter stream, blog directly to my Typepad blog (this one), post articles to my Facebook profile, check my Gmail or Yahoo email, upload media, subscribe to RSS and check them, and with the handy icon bar across the top have quick access to all my social media accounts.

The RSS reader is the feature I originally downloaded Flock for. One click of an RSS icon and Flock jumps into action.

Do you have a favourite Internet browser?

Using Flock also means that I don't get wrapped up in checking social media sites when I should be working as I make it a personal policy not to use other browsers for checking Facebook and the like.
