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 &#8211; how could they be?) and gives you a tool for maintaining your journals.<br \/>\n<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>It also connects to your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\">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<p>As for favorites, it connects straight to your <a href=\"http:\/\/del.icio.us\">del.icio.us<\/a> account and uses the online bookmark tool that is that website and keeps it organized and (apparently, thought it&#8217;s not) local. So now your favorites are only just a menu away, but are stored on the internet, so that they&#8217;re ALWAYS a menu away&#8230;provided you have Flock.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a tool that&#8217;s worth a try if you&#8217;re into the amature syndication type thing of web 2.0.<\/p>\n<p>Personally (so that I&#8217;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 (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.the-spot.net\">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&#8217;re lacking in favorites lists, that stretch beyond the site&#8217;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<p>technorati tags: <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/Reviews\">Reviews<\/a>, <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/%20projects\"> projects<\/a>, <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/%20tech-personal\"> tech-personal<\/a>, <a rel=\"tag\" href=\"http:\/\/technorati.com\/tag\/tsn\">tsn<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m testing a program called Flock, that has been around for some time now (however, relatively short period of time it&#8217;s been in the scheme of things).
