Since releasing our newest version of Flock almost 90 days ago, we’ve shipped six new builds, deployed three auto updates and made some great improvements to the product. And because listening and learning from our community of users is a top priority at Flock, this week we’re fielding our tenth user survey in less than three months. So far, our users have told us the things they love the most about new Flock are:
Performance and design: Fast and easy set up, overall browser speed, and fast page loading
The new Flock sidebar: Makes it incredibly easy to follow, find, share, and update all your friends and information
Search: Discovering interesting content from friends when searching in the new Flock
The market response has also been outstanding: users of new Flock have grown an average of 25% week over week since launch, thousands of positive product reviews and blogs have been published (my favorite coverage is here), customer satisfaction is soaring, and a significant majority of our new Flock users have recommended Flock to their friends (45% to more than 3 friends).
And now a milestone that we take a lot of pride in -- as of yesterday, the new Flock sidebar has helped its users view, manage and engage with 1,089,912,202 activities (status updates, tweets, direct messages, video uploads, invites, photos, comments, feed updates, notifications, etc.). And, as the #2 top ranked feature within Flock, the new sidebar is a hit because it makes scanning, reading, searching, viewing media, clicking through to source links, grouping, tweet replies, retweeting and sharing easier then ever before.
