WordPress Flickr Post Bar is like Flock
By now you’ve probably heard about Flock, the new Firefox-based browser that has a bunch of social-networking & blog-enabling features. Probably the most visually sexy feature currently available in Flock is the ability to see a bar of your Flickr photos that are available to be inserted as you are writing a blog entry. If you’re a WordPress user, you might be interested in a new plug-in called WordPress Flickr Post Bar.

WordPress is like Firefox for blogging, elegant and efficient, easy to use and powerful. But in both cases the true power is in their extensibility, Firefox with extensions and WordPress with plug-ins. This WordPress plug-in is a keeper.

WordPress doesn't advance nearly as fast in development as Firefox does, so the liklihood of running into a problem like that is much more rare. As with anything, when the version changes, there is a potential for incompatibilities to occur. But my experience with WordPress has been quite good in this regard.
