Daryl has just blogged about a meeting tomorrow at Panera's restaurant at 205 N. Peters Rd here in Knoxville at 1:00 PM. Anyone interested in learning a bit more about Flock is welcome to join us.
Daryl Houston has a nice post this morning titled Wil Wheaton and Tagging that gives some insightful thought to the value of tagging. If you aren't familiar with what tagging is through such services as Flickr or del.icio.us, you might find this worthwhile reading.
This morning I spent a bit of time evaluating SnagIt, a capture tool for Windows.
Today I'm going to try a slightly different style of blog post. The reason is that today's post is a «catch up» post, meaning that I've allowed a number of days to pass without posting anything here but since those days haven't been empty, I want to document some of the things I found interesting but didn't post. Doc Searls and Dave Winer both seem to use a style like this (though they post contemporaneously), in that they post short posts with links to the items and less commentary about those links than I do. So I'll try that with this one and see how it goes. So here goes.
For the last few days I've been involved in reviewing and editing the documentation for Flock. After Lloyd seduced me into joining in the effort to produce/improve the documentation for Flock the other night, I read through the documentation that has been created thus far for the purpose of proofreading it. While do so, I learned a few things I didn't know. For instance, I found out ...
Suddenly when I check my blog tonight I find that none of the pictures I uploaded to it from Flickr are being displayed. What's up with that? It's late enough at night that I'll worry about that in the morning, but in the words of Yul Brynner in his role as the King of Siam, «'Tis a puzzlement.»
Yesterday I was delighted that the auto-update feature of Flock version 0.5.11 manifested itself and I was prompted to update to this newer version. I gave the auto-update permission to go ahead and do it, and now, quite smoothly, I again have the latest version. Flock is still in the «pre-release developer's version,» but it is functioning quite well and is stable. I've been using it as my default browser since sometime in November and am very satisfied with its many useful features. For instance, I used Flock to upload this screen shot to Flickr.
Yesterday I was puzzled by the error message I was getting when I tried to install the Filterset.G extension that is used in conjunction with the AdBlock extension in Flock (and also in Firefox). I posted the screen shot of the error I received on my Flickr site, and sometime yesterday Killeroid replied to my quandry by suggesting that there was an existing port of that extension for Flock. After some fooling around with it (running it through the Flock'd tool at this site again), I was able to get the extension installed in my new version of Flock. So all is well, because it all ended well. As I have reviewed my own actions yesterday when I was trying to install this extension, it appears that I may have been clicking the wrong link while trying to install it.
technorati tags: Flock, error message
I tried to install the Flock'd version of Filterset.G from Outraged-artists.com, but I keep getting this error.
This is the first post from the Flock version 0.5.11 which was just announced on the Flock irc channel, this afternoon. We'll see if this works.
