Comments on: Five Tools For Drinking From The Firehose http://davefleet.com/2009/05/drink-firehose/ Exploring the intersection of communications, marketing and social media Wed, 23 May 2012 09:47:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Molly http://davefleet.com/2009/05/drink-firehose/comment-page-1/#comment-38700 Molly Sat, 16 May 2009 10:15:28 +0000 http://davefleet.com/?p=1268#comment-38700 Question: I'm using Flock (Firefox social extension, I guess you'd call it) instead of Firefox for Google Reader, GMail, my socials (including FF). Which would you recommend, Flock (I don't really like it's search interface as much as Firefox's) or Firefox itself? Right now I'm leaving Flock open to stay in contact w/my socials and opening up Firefox as my search browser. Clunky but working until I figure out which works better for me. I'm checking into Firefox extensions to see if I can make Firefox more Flocky socially while retaining that search browser look/feel/capability.

Don't know if you've tried it but we also have a Google Reader extension (for Firefox). Take a look @ http://gr.aiderss.com Edwin, we've had a number of feedly users ask us for PostRank integration - would love to chat about that (ilya at aiderss dot com) :-) Thanks for the mention Dave!
