Flocking hell - The future of web authoring
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 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.

| 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. |  |
 | Not-one PC I've ever owned friezed from opening 10 text documents. Not even a vic 20 or a zx spectrum. But now 3Ghz cpu with 2GB memory can be slowed down to a standstill. |
