Flock, not Rockmelt for social browsing

Flock social web browser Mozilla based Chromium powered beats Rockmelt new browser Browser wars are nothing new. One new contender, however, is advertising quite smartly and might shove my more superior browser off the table if I don’t tell you to use it! Social web browsing is seeing feeds, media, video and RSS updates from one screen. Flock and Rockmelt has it. Flock, though, has it better.

Good MP3: Web 2.0 WTF?

I’ve even spoken with experts and experienced computer users who fear the Social Network driven Web 2.0 “stuff” out there. Good news! Before I got to busy with Ruby on Rails to update the site everyday, I bounced around with Web 2.0 services like Facebook, MyBlogLog, Flock, friendfeed, Flickr, PodCastAlley, MySpace, Seesmic, Ma.Gnolia and OpenID and received absolutely stunning results without more effort. I expect that this won’t fully sway skeptics, but you should hear what benefits came from my work of several days in plumbing the depths on your behalf.

Facebook Game, TextTwirl Cheats

It’s not useful unless adding words like CESTA and ETHS to your vocabulary make you feel stronger.

Opening Up A No-Brainer.

IMHO, a path for certain disaster was clearly laid out. Don’t allow data portability, maintain a closed, mono-culture and victimize your subscribers with advertisments designed for print media. In short, do what AOL did. Today’s report of Facebook making their platform an open source project does surprise me somewhat after all this talk about data portibility.

Wind Storm Timelapse.

Facebook does not take animated GIFs. So I placed here a time lapse of a storm we got bringing hail, 70 MPH wind and that cool, green sky that’s really creepy. Every 12 seconds, a photo just missing the first cloud ring – the second ring is the smooth one that zooms in over the camera bringing a wall of really strong wind. This storm was preceeded by a double-rainbow that collapsed into the appearance of one, out-of-focus rainbow.

South Florida storm approaching in a classic manner.
