Make websurfing more social with Flock

Flock is an internet broswer based on Mozilla Firefox but with lots of addons already installed to make surfing the web a more social affair.

It can keep track of people via Facebook, Flickr and Twitter, or their videos in Youtube.

There is a photo bar for storing images for sharing on websites such as Photobucket or Flickr. The built-in blog editor is compatible with Typepad, Wordpress and Blogger among others. An option to blog is included in the right-click menu, whatever is selected, be it a photo or text, is then quoted in the blog post.

If you want to stay up to date with changes to Flock, it also has its own Facebook Group.

Installation is simple in Linux, unpack the file into your home folder and run from there.
