Trying Flock again..
In Social Media on May 24, 2009 at 10:57 am
Read a post on Read Write Web on how Flock with its new release has a new feature called Flockcast …So I am giving it another shot. I believe the last time I gave up on it was because I had a much smaller social media footprint and maybe I even had some configuration issues similar to Chrome.
Update: The picture below shows what the post looked like when I posted from Flock. The text was in italics. The video didn’t show. Either I didn’t use the Blog Editor right, or someone forgot to test it with wordpress or my WP Template messed it up.
Flock did send out a ‘cast’ to Facebook. I was expecting a tweet too!
I was compelled to return to WordPress to edit the post to match the look and feel & the issue with the YouTube embed.
So what’s the early verdict?
I like it. And I’m willing to give Flock a shot for this week at home and see if the features really help. More soon!
How Jack in the Box does Nutrition Facts

My current role at work involves providing functional input for an online tool we’re designing. This has involved preparing screen mockups for the application interfaces, designing workflows etc. So I am always on the look out for good examples of user experience design particularly form and workflow designs.
The other day when I had a particularly satisfying burger at the Jack in the box I was compelled to seek out its nutrition facts. (Because anything that tastes that good cannot be good for you.)I loved what the web designers at Apollo Interactive had put together.
I even did a little narrated screen capture video.Check it out!
