FOULGER  So the obvious question now that Safari 4 public beta is out is, are the developers going to change engines?

I have used flock loyally since it first came out but the sheer speed of Safari 4, even though it is not visually so inspiring, makes it a no brainer.

Hopefully they are revving up the new engine even as we speak!

S_ENGEL  After more than 1 year of intensive use of Flock, I will go back to Firefox or Safari. Flock is full of features, yes, but there are too many features in my opinion. And with the latest releases Flock became more and more clumsy and buggy. Sites which are shown at cyberspeed in FF or Safari are not shown at all in Flock or open very slowly. Some downloads I started do not proceed, in FF or Safari the same downloads are finished within some minutes. Even deleting the cache, the history or cookies does not change anything. This all-in-one device suitable for every purpose will be killed by its own "overweight". It's a pity...

JAZZYGUY  Very nice version of this web browser.I have a lot of add ons including AdBlock Plus that does a great job on this browser.In short I like it.

CALL ME YO DADDY  So far the new Flock 2.0 is quite impressive. If you're in to Web 2.0 websites, then Flock is a must have. If you're not, stick with Firefox and save the unnecessary childish remarks. Overall, this browsers feels very much like Firefox 3 most because the two are extensible and use the same gecko rendering engine. Flock's default UI might not before everyone but there are two that I really enjoy that are made especially for Flock; Dublin and MyBlue. Both are available at Flock.com

The one thing that needs immediate attention is that for some reason Flock 2.0 appears to be white or faded out in appearance. Leopard apps have a smooth metal look, not white which you saw in Tiger. The MyBlue theme seems to correct this but the default theme seems to have a background look such as when one app appears in front of the other. Other than this, Flock 2.0 is a great addition to the gecko based browsers. :)

REVCO  What was once a lean clean browser is now a cluttered mess. That's a real shame.

HOTFREAKS  Too many designers ruined the soup on this one. Flock is now in the same class as Opera; a good idea gone awry. There are buttons all over the place on this browser, for god knows what.

Also, anyone who thinks Flock is faster than Safari is drunk. At this stage of the game, webkit is simply faster than mozilla, end of story. If you are perceiving it otherwise, it is either alcohol or wishful thinking (or both) that is to blame.

NOTRIGHTNOW  Great version - wish picslens/cooliris worked (1password works fine!) - this is a browser should be.  
(Version 2.0b2)

BOLOBAR  Flock has potential but is not usable for me without 1password.

GROOVYDAVE  Really excellent browser that could be extraordinary down the road. The little things that make this browser unique and that sets it apart from Safari and Firefox are too numerous to mention.

I instantly got a feeling of "How did I live without this?" within the first hour of using it. It's blazing fast -- much, much faster than its competitors -- and the personalization (I'm not talking skins and themes) truly makes it feel like this one's mine and only mine.

One suggestion: Love the "My World" but I would love options of a static site list of favorites.   
(Version 1.1.1)

ZX81  Be aware that, as mentioned on the Flock site, "this is a BETA version of Flock 1.1, and will not use your browser profile from any previous version of Flock. This is a clean install. This means that when you install this build, you will not have your previous Flock favorites, feeds, or personal info. This info is not deleted, it's simply not accessed."
