It’s sad news and the end of yet another web browser. Flock, which had it’s first release on April 11th 2005, has officially (as of April 2011) announced that it will be discontinued.

When I started gaming, we didn’t have these fancy Xbox 360′s and PS3′s; we had the N64, the PSOne (which I sadly missed out on), and most importantly, the Game Boy.
