I too will stick with Firefox. Flock is just that: a Firefox version spiced with a few extensions. For non techies, this may be a good download, and better than IE anyway, but for techies, Firefox or even Opera are a much wiser choice.

I’ll give some credit to the Flock team because this is a very early beta, but I’m skeptic about how something built on Firefox can be much better (and faster) than it.

About favourites: I know what you mean, and I have mixed feelings myself… but ultimately, I don’t think this is the way to go. Your favourites, your precious… would not exist if web authors had not shared their information on the web. I ask you this: think for a few minutes of how much you have learned on the web, then think of how much you would not have learned if no one had shared… Sharing bookmarks is just your way of passing out information when you cannot provide better one yourself. It is… beautiful.
