Flock

Flock has indeed landed, today — they released a Devel­oper Pre­view this after­noon. In fact, I’m pub­lish­ing this very post from within the browser.

Ini­tial impres­sions — why can’t I select Mov­able Type text formatting?  I know this is a beta and all, but this is kind of a deal breaker for me… appar­ently MT is giving them some troubles:

Word­Press and Blog­ger work pretty well. There are some prob­lems still with Mov­able Type. We haven’t tested any other blog­ging platforms

I haven’t done much with the del.icio.us inte­gra­tion yet, but so far this doesn’t seem very rev­o­lu­tion­ary. John Oxton agrees.

Wow, I just checked the code that Flock wrote to my entry… hard coded <p>s and <br>s, no line-breaks… yikes. I wonder if it defaults to what­ever your default text for­mat­ting is?
