Flock feedback
I'm using Flock, a new Firefox-based open source browser. Why? Well, it's to be the world's first "social browser", but mainly because lots of friends work there.
And, I'm already responsible for sending one person to the mothership (note to Bart and Jeffrey: you owe me at least an iPod, especially if I hook you up with someone from the original OE One team)
Sorry if this is cryptic to some. My main point in posting (other than to publicize my request for an iPod) was to start listing some feedback to the Flockers. Roland did a good post on why Flock is important with some more meat to it.
The first item of feedback being...
- ...where do I post feedback/bugs? It's not listed anywhere on beta.flock.com that I can see. And yes, pinging a URL like beta.flock.com/feedback and/or using a tag like flockfeedback would work, too. Just let us know.
- I already have Firefox installed. Can you suck in info from there. The "Import" command doesn't list Firefox as a source.
- I created two groups (Vancouver, Drupal) but wasn't added as a member of those groups.
- How do I add tags if I don't "add & tag"?
- I know what my blog settings are. The Blog Manager doesn't auto-detect correctly, but I don't see options to set this up manually.
That's all for now, after my first few minutes of Flocking. Looks like interesting work so far guys -- keep up the good work.
Thanks for the info. I recently signed up, but no invite yet. I love this beta testing. I will follow you site with RSS.
You call that cryptic ! ;-) Good thing I already took care of sorting things out with my *current* employer , otherwise this would be a zero day exploit and you could bring the heat down on me :p Ok , you got me , only a day 1 exploit .
Mercurial Communications is a fantastic company , and I will miss working with them . Possibly never again will I be as mobile as I currently am , and Flock already feels like a dream actualized !
I think I will take a little credit b/c I asked you first about Flock , and I bring the skill ;-)
I think we will be able to get you that iPod you are fishing for [1] , not because we owe you , but because you are a good and helpful friend -- ie keep the feedback and insights coming , and we will keep dangling the iPod bait ;-) We have already let you be one of the 1st 100 to Flock ~_^ [2]
Thank you again ,
Lloyd !
PS. Jeffrey spells his name Geoffrey .
[1] Even if I have to pay for it myself .
[2] Seriously though , we appreciate you taking a look at flock , it means a great deal to us !
