After a period of hiatus I’m trying Flock once again, and I’m loving it. Before there weren’t many (or any at all) Firefox extensions working on Flock but now every single one that I use is on Flock.
One small thing that bothered me at first that I changed was the default search being Yahoo, and I use Google with conviction, to change this go to the about:config url, and change two settings: browser.search.defaultenginename to Google and browser.search.defaulturl to http://www.google.com/search?lr=&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=
But other then that there’s is a lot to like, the integration with social sites is awesome; Twitter, Facebook, Flickr and so on all come together nicely. Another thing is blog posting, in fact I’m writing this post in Flock’s built-in blog posting feature. It also is able to use 1Password so that’s a plus. Other than that there’s some other stuff such as: Media Streams, a fairly nice RSS reader for a browser but it’s not going to take me away from NetNewsWire, and there’s a lot more.
The Circle Six blog also created a post on some extensions that are working, profile management, keywords, and multi-bookmarks which is here. You can download it here.
