Flock never really caught me

A reasonable answer to a statement like the one in the subject, could be: Whenever it is me who have failed or the software… – It takes, on the other hand, two to a tango. Which means, that I might be a lazy son of a bitch, but on the other hand – it might be a special kind of persons, who can keep an interest in link communities alive.
Have you tried it? – There are a lot of services like it – embedded in software, plugins or on webpages. Have you tried it, or any other of the other link sharing communities? One of the most fameous ones is: http://del.icio.us/
I guess that the reason that I lost my interest for it, was that I had to go through a lot of crap, to really find anything worth while – even thou thousand of other users do think that this or that link is marvellous. The idea about sharing the best on the net is great, but I dont think that it works.
I would like you to share your thoughts on it!
Regards
Mr Rask

Flock is yet another browser, but this one is created as a tool for people who likes to discover resources on the net.
It is a browser which enables you to share, recommend and get recommendations for links. – Its called a community browser; you share your favorites with people, and they share theirs. The resources (websites) gets a score according to how popular they are, and the users give them keywords, which might make it easier to find a relevant link.
The program is a pre. beta release, so its too early to say it it will make critic mass. It looks nice thou, and it works fine – as far as I can see, but I have on the other hand only used it for an hour.
I did create this blot, because the program also works with blogs, but I havent any idea about how, and – why.
