What the Flock

In an attempt to stay on top of the explosion of social media sites as well as my own reluctance to update my personal blog (ahem) I've installed Flock, a browser designed with the social medialite in mind.  Just running through the bevy of settings and personalizations is a daunting task.  Luckily I've got little to do, and backed by the hopes of increasing my productivity (ironically) taking the time clicking on buttons in what appears to be a souped up version of Mozilla's Firefox, is right up my alley.  So far it's pretty neat.  I've linked up my Gmail, Facebook, Blogger, Google reader, and myspace accounts to it, though I do wish I could sync up my calendar.  Maybe there's a way, but in the half hour I've spent tinkering with this (I seriouly feel like I've been lightingly banging away at this app with a digital hammer) I haven't seen a way to do it.  New favorite perhaps?  In the settings?  drag and drop?  We'll see I guess.  But at least I'm not bored.  Yet.
