HOOOOLLYYYYSHIIIIIIT [grabs chair's armrests]

Seriously guys, you have to try this browser.  I thought 'yeah, right, fast.. HA', but it really is noticeably faster than firefox and IE.  Has a lot of other features which many browsers dont have.  Damn sexy too.
Check it out

I just found a fancy assed feature:  you can remotely store all your bookmarks and access them anywhere.  They use http://del.icio.us/ for the backend/storage.
SO AWESOME. I've been looking for this kind of thing for YEARS.

Yeah, I read about it a bit, sounds promising but just doesn't sound finished enough to cause me to switch browsers right now.

Firefox was so simple! I didn't have to read things on how to bookmark. and where to find my bookmarks.. I didn't have to download a special something to make bookmarks awesome or whatever... I don't know.. I just like my firey fox.

I downloaded it as well but I'm also confused.  It tells you to right click the link to bookmark the buttons but when I do, it doesn't give me the option to bookmark.

No no, that's "early adopter".

BTW I can assure you that Flock is NOT faster than Firefox. It is faster than Firefox 1.07 for sure, but it's the exact same speed as Firefox 1.5. Why, you ask? Why, my friends, because it is BASED on FF1.5. In fact, Flock is a very slick implementation of FF1.5 with some interesting community content aggregation features built into it.

Give it a try, and get FF1.5  --  and, yes, this site looks way, way fucking better in both compared to IE. It's hard to keep looking good when the browser hasn't been functionally updated in, ooooo 4 years?

The scale goes innovator, early adopter, early majority, late majority, laggards
Must I pull out the graph?
I'll try ff 1.5 and see what's up ... I want my damned delicious bookmarks!

@slaythem: yeah well I guess that's why I switched, because it has delicious integrated into it.

Yay multiple replies!
So I'm trying out ff1.5 here at the school, and it is indeed as fast as flock.  I don't see any new extensions though.  What did they add?

You can make 1.5 replace 1.0.7, so all your settings are the same
