We’ve got a fun product to tell you about. Today, Flock launched its latest product that is geared towards people who are passionate about keeping up with Fashion, Entertainment and Lifestyle trends. Flock’s ‘Gloss Edition’ is the world’s first fashion and entertainment browser designed to help people keep up with the latest fashion trends and celebrity lifestyle scoop (o.k. gossip).

We’ve put together a bundle of the best sources on the Web to bring you your daily dose of fashion inspiration, celebrity dish, and trends by including over 35 leading content providers and partners, from Glam, PopSugar, InStyle, ThisNext, DesignerApparel, AllTop and others. The best part about it is that all of this information comes to you, and is updated immediately as news and images are published. You’ll never miss a beat and people will wonder how you stay on top of it all.

We’ve also worked with a great panel of women to design a theme for the Gloss Edition of Flock that is pink, ‘soft’, fun and well suited for the fashionistas’ never-ending pursuit of stylish individuality.

We had fun building the Gloss Edition and we hope you have fun with the experience that it delivers. Check it out, and please don’t keep it a secret. Tell your friends about Flock.com/gloss.

-Cheers

Regards and keep up your great work

Flock becomes better and better with every release

A nice theme. Is it possible to use it in the German Edition (Theme available as a .jar)?

@Tanja: So glad you like the Gloss edition! Once 2.0 hits the official release, we will have a Gloss 2.0 version.

@Pascal: We're definitely working to get affinity themes on the website ASAP, as well as some other new themes. Stay tuned!

Can we have a Floss edition for Dentists?

I believe, it's not going to work, just cause it says floss, it's not really going to attract dentists.

uhhhhh ohlala nice , it's soooooo luvely !! just right for us fashion victims !!

:-))

Like always, Flock team did a very creative thing :)

At first, I thought it might be too girly but I was wrong, it is really Cool addition..

Hey Dan: beta testing 2 but now I have a reason on my ACER Duo Core PC running VISTA, to actually place something of interest to me on the secondary desktop for friends to use. LOVEING the beta 2 and this is perfect and maybe the first GAY BOY GRRL FRIENDLY browser in the world. I do not demean and will spread the love throughout my many glee [gay lesbian and everybody else ] and of course with my 'girlfriends' too. GRRL s RULE!!

PINK FOR BOYS TOO!

want help with this browser lol i know this browser from its birth, so far i like it better then fire foxes stuff for real, so far firefox has failed on the beta 3 version from a lot, i laughed, i had too all was telling i was full of it well now they wont doubt me lol lol i been in developments and web system over 10 years lol.

I have been a netscape user for almost 10 years and ever since AOL took over it went down hill. And now is being eliminated. I have tried Firefox but it just wasn't the same as my Netscape 7.2 that I have tried to stay with. I installed Flock today and was really impressed. So far it seems to eliminate my need to use 3 browsers, netscape, firefox, and IE.
Thanks for the great work making Flock.

I really, really love it. Thanks guys - but the RSS feeds viewer only shows 20 feeds at a time and i can't refresh nor look at past feeds I missed out - it'd be great if this was solved, too. Anyway, good job guys!

I love it sooo much! The pink, the rss, the sites!
Please keep it up to date once you release the 2.0 version!!!

wow ... thats all i can say! i just LOVE IT, it percetly fits to my "site"-outfit. really great and sweet design, i think THATS it for all girls ;o)

I wish this lovely pink look came in flock 2.0. I had to wipe my gloss out in order to get 2.0 to install properly. How can I get that beautiful pink back?

Can't wait for Gloss in v2 ... any ETA????

Hi. Save your money for crisis

Like always, Flock team did a very creative thing :)

Ho my... Gloss... hehehe, lovely one, so bad is no longer available and couldnt try it.

I still love the project... ;)

Really Wish I could have Tried It,Clicked on one of the Links and It states that the Project was closed and the "The Flock Gloss Edition is no longer available"
Well,maby you you guys a getting ready to unleash something bigger into the Limelight ;)

wow thats soooo cute, lovely, great! i love it. know i switch finally to flock with that excellent design, it seems it was made for me :)

If someone is asking for a pink Flock, I would like to ask for a BLACK Flock.
Wouldn't it be more popular than a pink one?

I think that this is a great version of Flock, it looks so nice.

I would like to inform all my friends. But a lot of them don't know english. Is there Turkish version of Flock's
"Gloss Edition"

The glossy theme is awesome! I simply love it!

Its prefect for Valentines Day! It will be a great present for my girlfriend who loves the internet!

ya i m hell lot interested in fashion. i m a fashion freak . i think this is a good news for me .

Massive stuff...This should should a whole new precedent..

I see a trend here where browsers will be designed for certain types of niche content. Browsers for fashion, browsers for news, browsers for movies. Where will it ever end. I think I'll just stick with good old Firefox for the time being.

Gee I hope you're wrong. It's bad enough having MSIE, Firefox and now Chrome as my browsers. I don't need any more choices !

You guy's are killing it! I wish I had your jobs... Looks great!

I think its looking very good for you guys. thanks for keeping my experience nice!

My be one day browsers will be built around niche content. This would be very big! shhhhhhh!

Great work! I've been using Flock for 2 weeks and I love it!

I'll tell you what, if Firefox comes up with any more updates I'm sure to look for an alternative. It's been line 3 or 4 updates this week alone. Wastes about 10 minutes of my life each morning.

i don't have a Foss edition for Dentists

wow really this seems high class fashion news i would love to check it out daily . i m so much into it .

it's not really going to attract dentists.

I wish it could be translated to Turkish also.

The Flock Gloss Edition is no longer available

Flock browser is really a unique way to keep up with the latest in fashion and and entertainment. Its Gloss edition being the world's first of its kind really calls for an applause.
