Cnet Calls Flock One of the Top Web 2.0 Hits of 2007
Mountain View, CA – December 31, 2007 – Flock, the innovative social web browser, today announced that it has been listed as one of CNET’s top 2.0 Hits of 2007. CNET writers Rafe Needleman, Josh Lowensohn, and Caroline McCarthy called out Flock as one of the best technologies of the year in their “Hits and misses of 2.0 (07).”
“Flock has made significant enhancements and improvements with the launch of the Flock 1.0 web browser. Were very excited that Rafe, Josh, and Caroline recognize those enhancements and the value Flocks user-centric browser brings to social networking,” said Shawn Hardin, CEO of Flock. “Flock is determined to change the way Internet users experience the Web – making it possible to easily navigate multiple services and sites.”
Flock was the only web browser listed; other hits included Google Maps, Twitter, YouTube, and the Facebook platform. The CNET staff noted that, “the real hook of using Flock is the integration of social networking and publishing tools, which offer more right off the bat than a standard Firefox installation. Users don't have to muck with tracking down and installing plug-ins that might not be updated when the browser is. With Flock, you don't have to worry about that with the core components, and if you really want to add on, nearly all extensions that work with Firefox are Flock-compatible.”
