Q: Why Flock?
A: To me, there of several features that are extremely appealing...
- Blog Post Editor - (see User Guide)
- RSS News Feeds Reader, built-in (see User Guide)
- Media Stream - access/update your favorite photos at Flickr or Photobucket, and at YouTube.
- Multi-search-site integration
- My World - (see User Guide)
- Extensible - extensions can be added that extend the built-in capabilities - note: My Favorite Add-ons (a.k.a. Extensions)
- Customizable - buttons can be re-arranged, using View»Toolbars»Customize...", for example.
- Collections of Favorites - for versions 0.7.x. As of version 0.9, integration with social bookmarking systems (e.g. de.licio.us)
- Built-in spell checker
- And many other features.
I have given a lot of feedback, and encourage others to do so also, simply use: Help»Give Feedback, or click on the blue fly icon (Send Feedback) to the right of the URL/location field.
BTW, I wrote Instructions on how to download and start using Flock...

I do think we have some similar goals of the iPhone: making access to the services and tools you care about a much more fun, integrated, and understandable experience. But Flock doesn't cost $500.00. :)
Flock'n'roll,
