Flock: A New Firefox-based Browser
October 23rd, 2005 by Jerome DahdahCheck out Flock, a new browser based on Firefox. This one should be especially interesting for bloggers.
Here are some of its new features (taken from Bart Decrem‘s Slashdot post):
- replaces old-school bookmarks with one-click social bookmarking to Del.icio.us
- tagging is there if you want to do two-click bookmarking and tag
- a new bookmarks manager with an integrated rss reader
- built in search engine that indexes every page you visit and has a Spotlight-style as-you-type UI
- keeps a list of the sites you visit most frequently
- multiple bookmarks toolbar (one for work, one for play etc.)
- finds feeds, lets you view them
- caches the feeds so you can read them on the train
- aggregated RSS view for all of your bookmarks folders
- integrated blog editor (support wordpress, movable type, blogger)
- one click ‘blog this’ feature (it does the blockquotes, citations and all that stuff for you)
- Flickr integration (drag and drop pix into blogs)
- shelf: a web scrapbook that helps you organize stuff you want to blog
Sounds good, and it looks sexy!
