Social Web browser, Flock has introduced a new version of its Firefox based application, Flock 2.5.

Flock 2.5 allows users to drag and drop URLs, photos, videos, text or other content to a friend’s Twitter, Facebook, Myspace or other profile in Flock’s People Sidebar allowing it to be shared.

Flock 2.5 also comes with Twitter Search that allows users to save all of their Twitter searches and keep them in one place. When a user shares a URL in a Twitter message, Flock automatically shortens the URL. Users can re-tweet and manage actions from within Flock’s People Sidebar. Flock also manages conversations by separating @replies and direct messages in separate areas within the Flock Sidebar.

Flock now offers support for Facebook Chat allowing users to drag and drop photos, videos, links and text into their chats.

 "Users are interested in the most immediate news and content from their friends and trusted sources," said Shawn Hardin, CEO of Flock. 

"While everyone is excited about the explosive growth of Twitter and Facebook, people are having a hard time staying on top of the volume and pace of information and alerts generated by these services.  Flock brings everything you care about together in one place, and seamlessly integrates all of your favorite activities into the browser.  The end result is that Flock makes the social web experience easy, fun and more fulfilling."
