It is a functional browser with excellent features (including firefox features like tabbed browsing, etc.). What really makes is stand out are two additional features they’ve added to build social networking directly into the browsing experience: social bookmarking and a wysiwyg blog writing tool.”      ”This [blogging tool] is pure magic. We’ve tested most blogging tools out there, including qumana and others. All of these requre a download and allow offline drafting and wysiwyg functionality. I have to say I think Flock blows them all away.”     * Ross Mayfield - Ross Mayfield’s Blog     “Flock is a social browser built on Mozilla that gets people sharing.  Can’t wait to play with it.”    * Robert Scoble - Scobleizer     “This looks awesome!”   * Barb Dybwad - The Social Software Weblog     “I am chomping at the bit to see it [Flock].”   * Ted Rheingold - Ted Rheingold’s Web Journal     “Watching a demo of the Flock browser, a private release of the open-source Mozilla browser that will allow for many time-saving functions for web-related tasks for anyone.”   * Owen Kellett - owenkellett.info     “After all of my praise for Firefox, why would I be particular interested in a new web browser? Well, Flock is apparently targeting a new kind of internet user.”     * Boris Mann - B.

I think the real goal is to provide a free and easy way for non-technical users to set up a blog. There are definitely many good WordPress hosts out there, but I think the goal is more to push blogging into the mainstream of <i>all</i> people.

They are plenty of WP hosts, so I don't see why WP would make thier own. BA~~9 I have no intention of switching blog hosts. They are plenty of WP hosts, so I don’t see why WP would make thier own.
