Gmail This & Flock Update

I saw this on LifeHacker today - a Gmail This bookmarklet! With the Gmail This bookmarklet you can easily email the URL of the page you are on to your friends with a click of a button. Nice link, LifeHacker! Sweet.

For the record, I couldn’t drag it anywhere in Flock - it wouldn’t let me add it to my toolbar. (As you may remember, I’ve been forcing myself to Flock this week). I opened up Firefox so I could add the bookmarklet, though. Firefox, glorious Firefox! It was so speedy and bright. I missed it. I had actually gotten used to these random CPU spikes that slow me down in Flock every few minutes.(..moments). Did I install a bad extension, I had wondered? I uninstalled the Google Toolbar extension, remembering when this had screwed up Firefox, but the spikes continue. I closed some tabs. Too many? Is hansoexposed.com eating up some precious cycles? It didn’t help. I type, the CPU spikes. I can’t even blog with Flock (well I can, but when I insert pictures into the post, the text doesn’t wrap. Pointless). So for me, for now at least, Flock is a great concept, not so great in practice. Firefox beckons, I must return. The week’s up anyway. (The weekend doesn’t count, right?)
