Thirty Day Challenge Preseason: Install Flock
Tuesday, July 29th, 2008Intro:
· Flock is the best Internet Browser to download/use
· Last year we used Firefox
· Flock and Firefox are built from the same engine
· Flock has taken a big leap forward in terms of the things that we need to do for Internet Marketing and with the Internet overall
Let’s start:
· In true 30DC style here are step-by-step insructions.
1. Click on www.flock.com
o Note: The Flock browser is that it is completely operating system independent. It will work on a Mac. It will work on a PC. It will work even on Linux.
o Ed suggests to use the beta version (located on the upper left side of the screen aka NW quadrant). It has cool features like Digg and Pownce. Digg is very cool and as you will learn, it is a very important tool.
2. Click on the operating system that pertains you you. Ed uses a Mac so that’s what he demonstrates. (NOTE: If you use Windows, the process outlined below may differ. However, it is similar to downloading any program and most people are familiar with doing that. I already have installed it on my system. If I have time, I will go through it again and describe how to do it, or if someone wants to add it below in the comments that would be great.)
3. Click on ’save file’
4. Click open which will bring up a dialog screen.
5. Click ‘accept’ for licensing agreements
6. Click and drag (Mac only)
7. Find Flock installation. Open Flock.
8. Set it as your default browser
9. Congratulations screen: This is an important screen and it does do a good job of introducing you to the Flock browser
10. Go through tutorial videos on the congratulations screen
