Well, I am a big fan of Flock, “the social web browser”. However, I am not using their blog editor. Why, you ask? While it would give me the option to alter old posts from a pull-down menu (something every offline-editor does), it doesn’t offer trackbacking. Trackbacks are dead you might argue, but still, I’d like that to be my choice. After all, I do still use MS Word from time to time. Flock didn’t offer trackbacks in the beginning and I cannot understand why this is still not implemented. Or am I just too darn blind to see them?
If you follow my writing you know that I use Performancing (or Performancing for Firefox). I only went to re-check on Flock’s blog editor after I read that not everything is well in Performancing land. But, it seems I need not worry because the blog editor plug-in will be continued under the name ScribeFire. Now, if they’d just add a local copy so I can edit my existing posts that would be swell. Or, if somebody would point me to an editor like Dave Winer users, just with the picture drag & drop that Performancing has, even better.
