Flock
Flock Blogging Rocks
I just found a sweet Feature of Flock. If you are posting to your blog via your blog’s admin or Flocks blog software, you can use Flocks built in Flickr browser, find a picture you want, and drag it to your post. Flock will write all the code for you without ever having to go to Flickr or leave your post window.
Plus, with the Flock photo bar, you can upload photos from your desktop, tag and organize them too. You never have to leave Flock or that blog post that you are in the middle of.
Jeeves Back at Ask!
I’ve stumbled across exclusive pictures of Jeeves the butler back at Ask! Is his retirement over?
I guess the man has been interviewing around as I also spotted him at Yahoo!
Checking out Google, I found that they interviewed Jeeves but have gone with Mr. T. That’s right, only the best results fool!
By now, you may feel my exclusive pictures are, um, fake. Well, not everyone is happy to see Jeeves go. So, with a little bit of code, you can add Jeeves back into Ask.com. Or add Jeeves to Yahoo, Mr. T to MSN, Sponge Bob to Google or a banana to Ask. Whatever you’d like.
Flock Dock Desktop Picture
Check out the new Flock Dock desktop picture. It’s my way of spreading the word of Flock and adding to the Flock community.
The idea behind the desktop picture is to be clean and easy on the eyes. It also has a gray area at the bottom for those of you running a Mac and who have your dock at the bottom of the screen.
You can download Flock Dock at Flickr or Zooomr. Zooomr has the biggest version at 1440 x 900 where as Flickr maxes out at 1024 x 640.
5 Reasons To & Not To Use Flock
Flock is an up-and-comming web browser. Based on Firefox’s rendering engine and having quite a few of the same qualities, Flock should be a contender as it works it’s way towards 1.0. However it has some good and some not so good qualities.
Are there any OPML syncing services?
As I bounce back and fourth between Firefox and Flock, I realize that I really need some sort of OPML syncing service. A quick Google and Yahoo search came up with nothing.
Is there really no service to sync OPML files between browsers? I have Sage in Firefox and Flock has a nice built in feed reader and now I need them to sync automatically so that they both have the same feeds.
Anyone? Ideas?
FYI: OPML is a file that holds your list of feeds. By syncing OPML files across the internet, you could always make sure you’re browser had an up-to-date list.
yExplore 1.5 Released
Checkout the yExplore page for the latest updates to the Firefox & Flock extension.
Here is a quick preview of what’s new:
yExplore for Flock
yExplore has been updated to work with Flock.
Now if you are on the cutting edge, like I am 
, and are running Flock as your primary browser, you can install and run yExplore with no issues.
You can get yExplore for Firefox or Flock at Mozilla’s Add-ons site.
yExplore : Quickly Access Yahoo Site Explorer
yExplore is a Firefox, Netscape & Flock extension to quickly access Yahoo Site Explorer.
The yExplore 1.6 update brings updates to match updates to Yahoo Site Explorer, better Flock support and added Netscape 9 support.
The yExplore 1.5 update included two options. yExplore the domain or a single page.
I felt that one extension that I was missing in Firefox was one to let me quickly access Yahoo Site Explorer stats. So, I took it upon myself to do a little research and build my first Firefox extension.
