Forget Chrome. Try the best new Mac browser

Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac “Now there’s a browser for Mac users that’s made specifically to enhance your online social life. Speedy. Stable. Secure. Social. One app. One click,” Ron McElfresh reports for Mac360.

“This year, Flock divorced Firefox. Now it’s married to Google’s Chrome browser,” McElfresh reports. “Chrome is based on WebKit, the engine in Apple’s Safari browser.”

McElfresh reports, “The new Flock 3 still integrates a number of social web sites into browser windows and handy, tool-like sidebars. There’s support for Flickr, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, to mention a few. Flock on Chrome is easier to use, fast, stable, secure, slimmed down, and with fewer features. So, why bother with yet another free browser on your Mac? Because you love being a social animal and it’s nice to socialize from one single app, rather than many apps.”

    “How about a Get Off My Lawn browser for grumpy bastards.”

    Where do I sign up?

    I switched to firefox years ago, I leave IE on my pc, or safari on my macs for times when sites don’t like firefox.
    And unless ms buys firefox (or adobe) I’ll stick with it.
    Safari is my 2nd choice.

    And outside of mdn I don’t do social crap anymore. Old bastard.
    Even have a shirt “you read my shirt, that’s enough social interaction for one day”
