During the Install Process
When you are installing Flock there are two install windows that you should watch for.
The first one lets you choose between the Express Setup & Custom Setup.
We recommend the Custom Setup.
when you land selected the Custom Setup you might choose which of the following options will enabled.
The First Look
When you start Flock up for the first time it will open with three tabs.
All three are of interest…especially if this is your first time using Flock.
With the first tab you could jump right into logging in/activating favorite social services within Flock.
The second tab provides a very nice overview of Flock and its built-in social management power.
The third and final page can be considered a Personal Page.
The first area will display a listing of people that you are watching/following at the services shown here.
Clicking on the Media Bar Button will display the following Media Slider Bar above your Tab Bar.
Notice that there is a built-in Search Bar on the right side.
Any photos, etc.
clicked on will be opened in the currently focused tab below the Media Bar.
Here is a listing of the Media Streams available for viewing.
or can be viewed individually in a new tab.
Next on the Flock Toolbar is the Webmail Button.
you could set up access to your favorite Yahoo!, Gmail, & AOL Mail accounts from here.
The Favorites Sidebar combines your internet tool History & Bookmarks into one convenient location.
The Accounts and Services Sidebar gives you quick and easy access to get logged into your favorite social accounts.
Clicking on any of the links will open that particular services login page in a new tab.
Just drag and drop them into the Web Clipboard Sidebar for later access.
The Blogging Window…nice, simple, and straightforward.
sign on to your favorite service to start uploading all those great images.
After Setting Up
Here is what our web app looked like after setting up some of our favorite services.
The Twitter feed is certainly looking nice and easy to read through…
Some tweaking in the RSS Feeds Sidebar makes for a perfect reading experience.
Keeping up with our e-mail is certainly easy to do too.
You literally get the best of both worlds with this internet tool.
