After a long journey, the first beta is out of the experimental browser Flock. So much is new, and so much is done, that it is much better to head over to Flock to find out about it all. The official announcement can be a good place to start.
This will also be the first version with a "semi-official" version of localization builds. And Zbigniew Braniecki calls in forces for some extra time on their hands to help with translating. So do you speak any other language then English, and want to help out with this exiting browser, I recommend you to go to his blog and sign up on the mailing list.
Good luck and congratulations on your beta Flockers.

Delicious del.icio.us. If you don’t know what del.icio.us is yet, then you have a lot to look forward too. So keep on reading. But why I wanted to write about del.icio.us right now, was not to educate about it’s existence, but tell you the great news about the upgrade they are having right now. They have just added inline editing, prettied up the URL info page, and right now they are doing some database changes so they can allow private bookmarks too. Which is a feature I have been looking forward too a long time. If you didn’t know what del.icio.us was before you started reading this, then you might have guessed it by now. It is an online bookmark/favorite storage space for you on the web. What this mean is that you can access your bookmarks on the web no matter where you are in the world. You can access the same bookmarks from work, from your Linux machine on your boys room, and the Windows machine in the living room or what ever. But since they are online, they have been public for everyone. Like my bookmarks can be found here. So obviously I can’t have bookmarks to my admin panel on my blog and stuff like that. I want to keep that secret. But now in the next few weeks we get private bookmarks as well.
There is so many other features with del.icio.us too that I could write about all day, like you can see what bookmarks are popular, see who else have the same bookmarks, and then again browse that persons bookmarks, and you have an inbox where you can subscribe too tags so you get a lot of bookmarks in your inbox with the same topic as you like. Great way of finding new and interesting pages on the web.
If you have ever used the Flock browser that I have talked about a few times here in my blog, then you have del.icio.us build into your browser. That means that your bookmarks physically in your browser synchronize with the bookmarks on the web. Which is a really really nice feature. Firefox came afterwards with a del.icio.us extension that made it possible to add bookmarks from within Firefox. After this, there has come several other extensions too to handle del.iciou.us bookmarks in Firefox. So go out there and try them out. I am sure it will be worth. It sure was for me when I got used to it.

While I closed my eyes and worked my self half to deth a few days, the release of Flock 0.5.11 bassed by.
Once again they keep using the 0.x.11 naming convention, because even if the new versions add new feautures it also adds some rough edges. But new features it si for sure. It have now added more favorite services, better privacy for favorites, import of Fx settings (this one many have been waiting for), spell checking, upgraded RSS viewer, new blog engine, photo browser, and many other new feautures.
So I can only recomend people who have some extra spare time to download it and test it. But remember, that it is a long way left to 1.0, so you should probably not use it as your everyday browser just yet.
