I’m testing a program called Flock<\/a>, that has been around for some time now (however, relatively short period of time it’s been in the scheme of things). Flock is apparently a heavily modified FireFox browser that enables the user to blog\/flick\/delich while they are on the internet. It connects seamlessly to your wordpress, blogger, or other type of blogs (though still in beta, not all blogs are supported – how could they be?) and gives you a tool for maintaining your journals.
\n<\/p>\n

It also connects to your flickr<\/a> account, and you can include your flickr photos (or those of your friends, if you know their flickr account) in your blog posts. This is a handy tool for people that like to take pics of their trips and events and such.<\/p>\n

As for favorites, it connects straight to your del.icio.us<\/a> account and uses the online bookmark tool that is that website and keeps it organized and (apparently, thought it’s not) local. So now your favorites are only just a menu away, but are stored on the internet, so that they’re ALWAYS a menu away…provided you have Flock.<\/p>\n

It’s a tool that’s worth a try if you’re into the amature syndication type thing of web 2.0.<\/p>\n

Personally (so that I’m not just writing a review) I plan to take a look at what makes this browser work with the other sites, and modify my website (the-spot.net<\/a>) to make use of this type of syndication and access. There is a photo album on the-spot and we have online journals, that will be moving to their own website soon. But we’re lacking in favorites lists, that stretch beyond the site’s forums. However, to create a browser that integrates with a forum and its features would be a niche tool, and something that might be worth looking into for other websites to do the same.<\/p>\n
