I use Flock. One reason is that some plugins I would have to install are built in. Another is that Flock doesn’t use Live Bookmarks. The last time I checked, you couldn’t shut these off in Firefox. This post should show you how to make it run a bit faster.

A feed reader is supposed to speed things up. You don’t have to visit the blog to read what’s been published.

- Advertising
- Affiliate
- Blogging
- Design
- Developer
- Forums
- Internet Marketing and Make Money

- Productivity and Freelance
- SEO
- Social Media
- Tech
- Thinkers
- Upcoming and Memes
- WordPress
- Writing

Your duties as a blogger may get confusing after a bit. Initially, you may have started with a simple plan of posting every day and leaving 10 comments on other blogs each day. My little trip into blogging started that easily.
