    Default Has anybody tried Flock?

    If you haven't heard of it, here's the link:
    http://www.flock.com/

    I like it 'cause it loads my pages faster than FF, uses less memory then FF, and it looks kinda nicer.

    Try it, and see what you think about it.

    I've got a friend who likes it. Problem is, though, that it seems to crash, and has some annoying bugs. It's a nice beta, from what I hear

    Aye, I used to recommend it to people for Safari-testing their pages in Windows, but all of them said it crashed with horrible regularity and was virtually unusable.

    Oh? It's running fine right now. In fact, I might use this instead of FF.

    Edit: Made no sense at all.

    I think replacing it with FF is a good idea, for stability and compatibility.

    Ha, well, made for a good reply. That's worth something.

    Haha

    It was quite a long time ago. They may have improved it by now, in which case it probably would be a better option than Fx in most cases.

    I've never heard of Flock before. Guess I'll download it for kicks.
    Edit:
    Downloaded: Too bubbly.


    It's so bad that I'd run to IE.
    Is such a thing even possible?
