One of the newer web browsers available for Mac and Windows is Flock. It is a Mozilla Firefox based web browser. Meaning, it’s like Firefox but it tracks or keeps you logged into your social websites like Myspace, Facebook, Flickr, Youtube, WordPress and others just to name a few. It even prompts you to sign up for additional sites you probably have never heard of before. Many of you, may be baffled with all the silly names of all these websites and applications as much as I am by the silliness of all this. I suppose wangojango is probably a new site that you can do something with.. Let me look first.. as of this moment, it’s not or their server is down. I assume the first thing I said is true. But watch and soon something just as silly will pop up.
For example, my co-worker and are members of Myface.com which is a knock off Myspace and Facebook. It’s really slow and I haven’t visited the site since I signed up, but now I can say I am on you Myface. There is also spacebook and myspacebook and other I am sure.
If someone can tell me how to put paragraph separations in my blog I would appreciate it. I don’t like it all smushed together. (Update, as soon as I posted this it just magically worked that way, maybe I figured it out or maybe Flock is the best for this).
I am using the new Mac OS Leopard on two machines. I put it on a MacBook Pro and a MacBook. I had issues with the MacBook when installing Bootcamp, but I think the problem is fixed. Actually, the problem occurred when I tried to install Windows XP. Maybe, my copy of Windows XP was bad.
I set up my MacBook Pro to use Time Machine and I also did a direct copy of all my files and I am going to do a complete wipe of the hard drive and start over. I have so much stuff on there, it’s probably time I start with a clean slate. It was running fine and I had no troubles, except for the menu bar not changing when I switched apps in the Finder using Spaces or other methods. I would switch from iMovie to the desktop and when I went back it would say iTunes. Wierd, huh?
I might still have the same problem later. I have had the same thing happen with Tiger but not as often.
I also had issues with the Stacks. I don’t them at all, the new Grid is okay, but the old way is probably better. I do like the addition of the Downloads folder. I also like the new security features in Leopard. For example, if you download an application and open it, you will get prompted about this new app telling you that it was downloaded from the Internet.
I love the new iChat and Photobooth, with the new backgrounds.
Well, back to work.
