RE: AttentionTrust > Flock you
This sounds really cool but after thinking about it;
Firefox doesn't have a logical interface and it doesn't work without lots of
extensions. It's much to big for a viewer but has no useful "out of the box" features.
The only interesting thing about a separate interface engine is that it can be really pretty and have a smart lay out. The use should be making it easy to rearrange the menu's. Firefox is not pretty and it doesn't come close to having a logical lay out. What's left of the XUL is the bad response time. |  |

The vision of Mozilla was dropping MNG support. That indicated what genius future they are planning for the web. (
give it all to macromedia) Would we get a
flash license with
Flock? Oh, no
MNG no flash and no GIF? How about the lack of font sets packaged with this web-text viewer. Cant have animation + cant have a font set? How is it still called
wysiwyg then? M$ paint does a better job.
Flock is probably the best in it's kind, I will keep an eye on it, grab the stable release and probably end up using it all the time. (haha) But for normal surfing
Opera makes a lot more sense. ^_^
It's rss reader is just as astonishing as the rest of it's features. It doesn't have the
Attention Recorder jet. Thats a bit of a downside. :P
Ok time to
Flock off. :---) Sorry for the bad humor & good luck.
