 Beta 1? This means that we have created a release with features that we think are of a usefulness and quality that Flock is usable on a daily basis, but we will not be surprised if it crashes or otherwise behaves poorly.
We are using the modern, web application meaning of beta, as opposed to what was previously used in client/server applications and still used within a development cycle. The other meaning of beta software is having finished the functionality and the most severe bugs, but not having the polish to be used daily.
I am comfortable with the risks to recommend Flock to everyone for daily use. The history and live search make it the best browser I have used. I consider Flock an essential tool for anyone interested in photo sharing with Flickr and Photobucket.
Still there are risks, and I appreciate people's willingness to help us make a great product. I enjoy the opportunity to identify and help fix the worse and most prevalent problems experienced.
I look forward to a beta 2 around September creating additional experiences and improving the existing functionality. Flock’s novel features are building blocks for a rich, complete experience.
Before the end of the year, we hope to have taken these building blocks and have an experience with polish.

I also like Flock a lot, and now I'm using it. Unfortunately it is very slow in Linux. Also it should support more services (e.g. zooomr) and it should also improve bookmarks: a good idea could be to use tags to automatically build a tree of nested folders. Epiphany already does that!
Anyway: Flock is a really good work! Thanks!
Flock has been great for me the past couple days that I have been using it. I also heard that Flock Beta 2 will be based off of Firefox 2...which will be great! Thanks for making such a great browser!

Im one of thoese people that if the app doesnt impress me in the first 5 mins of use id remove it , but in the first 3 mins i knew i was on to a winner. I expect this browser to go far.

Besides that, no one can beat him. In the game, we can rely on ourselves and we should help each other so the magic will be killed by us, so we can be victory. Because only the senior players can buy lots of gold, but we can buy the cheap silkroad gold to play with other players. Though it only can buy little props, we can also win the magic.
