Success sort of

At least the "Blog this" function at Flickr enables me to post a picture as the previous entry illustrates, however neither changing the theme nor trying to post a small version of a picture instead of a large one works yet when dragging pictures to the blog editor in Flock. Despite this, it still doesn't [...]

Flock’s news reader

Flock's news reader, originally uploaded by CaptQuirk. This screenshot illustrates Flock's new implementation of its RSS news reader, called "My Newspaper." The icon to call up the sidebar is designated by the red arrow pointing to the iconbar. In the list of RSS feeds, the bold font indicates unread items on that particular feed. The [...]

Changed theme

I have changed the theme so that I can test whether doing so will permit me to post pictures here. So again, I’ll see if I can get the photo of “My Newspaper” from my Flickr site to post. technorati tags: Flock, test

More on Flock’s Newspaper

Feeling stupid

Back on February 16, 2006, I posted this entry about a workaround for preventing Flock, which is based on Firefox, from opening two tabs when you click on a link from an email. At the time, I thought the fix I had proposed had solved that problem. However, I began to notice that the problem [...]

Test post

This post is to test a bug I reported in Flock when publishing from the  blog editor.  It has no purpose other than to generate a post that I can use to generate the error. technorati tags: Flock, testing, bug

Different Approaches

When Mike and Daryl and I met yesterday, our conversation revealed that we each have very different styles of surfing and using the various tools that are available to us. And that, I think, is one of the great values of getting together with other knowledgeable users. You get ideas about different ways of doing [...]
