StumbleUpon:: Extension for IE, Mozilla and Flock users

Hey everyone. The following article is about an extension in a web browser.

I was surfing through the extension page of Flock web browser n came upon this wonderful tool. Its called Stumble Upon. As the name says it all, it helps u to stumble upon any gr8 websites or pictures or videos or arts, graphics, animation,etc. etc. (the list is endless) according to ur interests. All u have 2 do is sign up n create a stumble upon account. U can then keep it in ur web browser (mozilla or flock) as a toolbar. Finally, all u need to do is click on the stumble button n start stumbling into some of the great web pages. 'Njoy.

Another Social Networking Video Site

VodPod is heavily designed around social networking. Have a thing for birds? Join the bird “pod” and you’ll have an instantaneous collection of birding videos. Like unicycling? Some kids from Australia have started a pod around that pastime too. Users can join multiple groups that cluster videos around various subjects that allows them to post and collect new videos that pertain to that topic. Although you don’t have to join a pod or even sign up with VodPod to search pod videos. Users can “lurk” within the pods anonymously without being socially networked.

Semantic web

Everyday we play with a lot of data. For example, I view my appointments in a calendar, view my photographs in my web gallery, check my bank statements online and so on. But can we view our photos in a calendar? The answer is NO. Because each of these applications have their own set of data, which is controlled by these applications themselves.

Semantic Web is a web of data. It provides a common formats for interchange of data, where on the original Web we only had interchange of documents i.e. with Semantic Web, data can be shared and reused across applications, enterprise, and community boundaries. It is based on the Resource Description Framework (RDF).

More news on FLOCK

This is so cooooooooooool. I am loving it so much more. FLOCK has almost all the features a person may want and much more.

With FLOCK, i can integrate my del.icio.us bookmarks into My News feature. Then there's this feature called web snippet. You can save links, text and pictures as snippets so that you can blog about it later

Snippets are especially handy for re-blogging bits of text from web pages. When you drag a snippet into a blog post, it is automatically formatted as a blockquote with proper citation.

FLOCK - a social web browser

I just learnt abt this new browser - FLOCK. Haven't tried all its features, but from what I have tried, it is so cooooooooool. I have also worked with Mozilla Firefox, IE and Opera web browsers. But FLOCK seems to be a little different. It is an amazing new web browser that makes it easier to share media and connect to other people online.

Try it and you will feel the difference. ;-)
