Ping me and I will get you a download. Cheers, Geoffrey at Flock dot com.
Comment by Geoffrey Arone at October 18, 2005 11:43 PM | PermalinkFrom the user's point of view, I'm willing to bet that within a month after Flock is _publicly released_ there will be extentions made to emulate exactly what Flock does, and then shortly after a skin to emulate Flock's UI. From the web designer's poing of view, why create a new browser with a new rendering engine that you need to cater for and test in when designing a web page? IMO, a new browser to worry about is just not worth what can be emulated with a few Firefox extentions.
If anyone gets a download, tell us what you think!

But I nitpick. :-P
