Functions well. Designed by those with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder for those with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder. It's like watching CNN: you don't know where to look or when. Why do they put all those simultaneously visible elements into Flock? Because they can--I suppose. So much for the virtues of negative space.

ADHD - ZX-81

Could not agree more. I love the concept but can't cope with all this information displayed simultaneously. Age, I suppose.

ADHD - vt256

Agreed. I guess I'm just not "social" or "Web 2.0" enough to want or need to have the equivalent of 14 different sites running simultaneously, and to sit there eagerly waiting for one of them to blip at me to prove how popular I am.

I mean, it seems to do what it says it will do, and seems like it does it well. It's just that I don't really want to do what it does. But if you do, Flock is probably the app for you.

Just remember, though:
a) that you don't need other people to validate you
b) the real definition of the word "friend"
c) you're not that interesting to begin with
d) to take your medication
