Blogging with Flock

This is just a bit of a test of some new software. Flock is what they are calling a Social Browser. It includes links to Facebook, YouTube etc as well as built in RSS and Blogging utilities. I can also upload pictures to Flick'r  but not to Picassa (which is what I have been using).

Theoretically I can link to an image like this:

Guess that works. As well you can poke people right from the browser without going to Facebook or check status etc. It also supports media streams, but since I don't know what that is  I'm not too thrilled yet. You can post to multiple blogs (see here at MacBlaze) either on standard services like blogger or LiveJournal or self hosted one like mine which is totally bonus. It links to del.icio.us and magnolia. It's cross platform as well.

It also has all the latest browser features like tabbed browsing, search capabilities etc. All in all is seems like a real gem.
