Flock - A New Browser

Dec 13, 2006

I’m trying to post this using a new browser I just found, called Flock. I downloaded it because I read in a review that it has an inbuilt blog posting plugin. Well, FireFox too has the Performancing plugin so I just downloaded and installed Flock for the heck of it and to try its blog editor. It’s no where near Windows Live Writer that I’m currently using (to edit posts, not to post them as it too lacks some features). Some of its features are not even working. For instance, I don’t know if it is just my computer or there is some problem, the button that should insert a hyperlink is deactivated, so I’m having to resort to source editing. OK, wait, the button activates when you select some pre-written text with your cursor. Now how would I know? In every blog editor when you click a similar link or button pops a window up and you can enter the link and the anchor text. No, I wouldn’t use it as my blog editor. Even the text I’m typing here is not clear.

The browser on the other hand seems lighter then FireFox and I think I’m going to give it a try for a few days.
