I recently installed Flock on my Ubuntu box and have run into more problems than I would care to. First and foremost, it is a pain to install, requiring you to work from the command line. N ow I am no stranger to bash, but I generally do not use it in Ubuntu (there is something ironic there I am sure). Whatever it is, it just didn’t want to work for me. Once I had it installed, Ubuntu did not want to accept it into program files so I had to do a little back end lo-fi wizardry to get it to behave as one. Once I was up and running everything seemed to be humming along fine until I got to what is at the core of Flock: bookmarks. For some reason Flock will just not hold onto my bookmarks in the favorites bar. It posts them to del.icio.us just fine (which becomes an annoyance as I post over and over again trying to fix the problem. I will keep working on this for a bit, but in the meantime it seems that Firefox reigns supreme on Linux.
