Flock!

Well, I love wordpress, and they seem to be working very closely with Flock team. In fact wordpress.com is now offering a blogger-like service. Flock has a very neat and cool built in blog editor from which you can login to you blog admin interface and write your blog and publish it, without the need to go to your admin page at blogger, or wordpress or MT, etc… This improves “Blog This” concept, and makes it easy to share a news you come across while you are browsing the net.

On the other hand, there are few more ideas they implemented, like a star button on the web address bar, which with one click can add the page you are visiting to your del.icio.us account, and tag it too. And since we are talking about tagging, you can actually tag all you “favorite” items of your bookmark list, which makes it easy for you to search for links with specific tags.

Just like Firefox, Flock puts an icon in the URL bar if the site you are visiting has a feed link. Also, a built in aggregator, which can automatically create and aggregated news from your collection of feeds.

They have also something called Flickr topbar, where you can drag and drop pictures you like into your blog post (which you created the built in blog this as I mentioned before).
