What if you sat down in a restaurant and the waiter asked you “…would you like that Good, Great, or UN-BE-LIEVABLE?” Of course you might ask about price, but if all options were free, of course you’d choose “UN-BE-LIEVABLE”.

That’s why we’ve been working so hard on our Flock 2 Beta, and our audience of loyal Flockstars has been growing so quickly. Everybody loves the latest improvements Mozilla’s Firefox 3 technology: much improved performance, tighter security and improved usability. However, what if you could have all of those great features AND all of the award-winning innovations that Flock offers?  (That would be the integrated People, Media, WebMail, Photo Uploader, Blog Editor, Feed Reader, and more.) Today, we’re making our second beta of Flock 2 available for everyone to enjoy, and you can take your browsing experience from great…to UN-BE-LIEVABLE for free.

In this latest release of Flock 2 Beta (two) we’ve taken your feedback very much to heart and included over 175 bug fixes, and incorporated Mozilla’s latest security patch from their 3.0.1 release.  Flock 2 Beta (two) is fast, even more stable and polished.

Now lets get back to the UN-BE-LIEVABLE part.  Millions of people still keep their lives ‘organized’ on the Web by opening heaps of tabs.  Those uninitiated to Flock often say “I don’t need anything to manage my stuff; I keep them open in tabs.” We believe this is not terribly different than ‘organizing’ your life by stacking papers all over your desk. People around the world are falling in love with Flock’s ability to help them remain connected to the variety of sites, services, and content that interests them, without stacking tabs all over their desktop. Flock keeps your world organized and brings your most important and interesting items and events to you.

Go ahead: order up the “UN-BE-LIEVABLE” version of browsing that leaves tired old conventional browsing in the dust…or, trapped under heaps of tabs.

You can get Flock 2 Beta (two) from http://www.flock.com/beta/download, where you can also find several articles detailing the improvements we’ve made.

-Enjoy

We have released a special edition “Test Version” of Chandler Desktop in order to try out patches submitted by Nick Parlante for 2 oft-requested features:

1. Clickable links in the item notes field
2. Support more custom recurrence rules.

So please help us test by trying out these 2 new features! As usual, send feedback and report problems to The Chandler-Users mailing list.

The build is available here, or, if you’re running 0.7.7 or later, via the Tools >> Check for Test Updates menu item.

Note for Mac and Linux: At this time, there is minimal support for visual feedback that links are clickable on Mac and Linux. Meaning, links will not be blue or underlined. However, if you mouse over a valid URL, your cursor should switch to the hand, and clicks should be handled correctly.
