Hi Flockers! This is my first time posting to the Flock blog, but I've been with the company since September 2006, working out of the Victoria, BC office (informally known as Flock North).

Not two weeks after taking the Webby award for Social Networking, last night Flock was honoured to receive two awards at the annual VIATeC Technology Awards dinner. VIATeC is the high-tech industry association serving Victoria (and the rest of Vancouver Island), where much of the Flock development team is based. Vancouver Island is quickly becoming a hotbed for innovative tech companies, and the Flock Canada team is very excited to be part of that growth.

Online Strategy of the Year - This award recognizes Flock's success in integrating and forging relationships with the major players in the social networking and social media spaces.

Newsmaker of the Year - It has been a very good year for Flock in the press. So much so, in fact, that there were no other finalists listed for this category. With over 400 published articles including PC World, BBC, and many other major media outlets, Flock was far and away the biggest newsmaker.

We were also finalists for two other awards: Executive of the Year (Clayton Stark) and Innovative Excellence: Software or Electronic Service Delivery.

Thanks to the judges for these honours, congratulations to all the other finalists, and thanks especially to VIATeC and its members for helping to develop such a vibrant and exciting technology community here on "Silicon Isle".  :)

congrats on the awards !!

you really deserve it :-)

greets pete

Congratulations with both awards. I agree with Pete that you really deserved both awards.

Keep up the good work!

WOW, It is just unbelievable. First Flock won the Web Award at SXSW Conference, then recently we were happy to see Flock won the Webby Award for Best in Social Networking.

And now once again, Flock proved that it is the best Browser, by wining not one, but two more awards.

I see a great bright future for Flock;

Congratulations to all members of Flock team.

Sounds really cool. Flock seems to dominate the world in the race of the best Browser. Really nice to see flock wining two more awards. Congratulations to everyone.

this sounds like a great achievement.
winning two awards proves that flock is the best browser, I think flock deserve these + many more awards

Wauu 2 awards sounds impossible.

Desde su apariciòn he sido fanàtico de flock y lo recomiendo siempre, es ràpido, su interface estilo mozilla es muy buena, es compatible con mucha cosas, la barra de video fuera de serie, etc, pero hay algo que no antes iba bien y ahora no es permitido y es instalar la barra de mediciòn de rank, sale un aviso diciendo que es peligrosa y esto y aquello y no permite su instalaciòn, pero antes si lo permitia y funcionaba perfecto, a que se debe esto, que soluciòn alternativa existe o que se debe hacer para obtener este servicio? Agradezco su ayuda.

Congratulations well done.
