Flock isn't such a useful browser. Its initial hype was created b'coz Flock users could sign up in Wordpress without any invites. Thts why i have said that it has cooled down...

the best thing i like about this browser is the del.icio.us integrated in it.
And the blogs too., and yes now i can upload to flickr directly from the browser.
