Just when you thought you and Firefox were going to be a long-term thing, along comes a next-generation web browser that promises to combine all that’s awesome about Web 2.0 with everything you love about the Firefox experience.
It’s called Flock.com and its debut is still a few weeks away. Flocks combines a number of disparate web services (blogging, photo sharing, wikis, etc.) into one united interface and is garnering praise from a number of geeks on high.
One of which is Microsoft blogger Robert Scoble, who says Flock’s time has come:
“Today, we’re using too many different services to share our stuff on the Internet.”
Bart Decrem is the company’s Belgium-born founder. The Stanford Law School grad was active in the The Mozilla Foundation, the developer of the original Firefox browser.
