...Might as well also be the death of social networking as we know it, too! I just found a notice in my e-mail inbox, about social web browser Flock kicking the bucket a few days from now.
It was a great browser, geared towards social networkers, and did it's job well. Share content fast across multiple social sites, receive updates from said sites all at once, or even just dedicate the browser to viewing one social website from all possible angles. It was great. I really didn't have any complaints with it, that I recall.
To date this is the only browser I've seen next to NetScape (revealing my age), to get Dreamcast'd (only I suspect the Flock staff will not be implementing their forward thinking skills towards their competitors in the end, but who knows?).
Will anyone else here miss it? Probably would've been sweet if NewGrounds was perceived as "social" enough to have its own place inside Flock's knitting.
If you've had this browser, please share your story, and if you like, which browser you'd pick in Flock's place as an awesome browser.

There's another social browser called RockMelt that you might consider trying...I've never used it but I've heard it's gotten some pretty decent funding from angel investors in silicon valley so it must be worth something.
